More Info:

Soul connoisseurs are adventurous folk and the emergence of a previously unknown singer/songwriter is big news among the cognoscenti. The only trace of Atlanta's Kenneth Wright is a handful of unrecorded song titles on BMI represented by Aware's publishing company Act One. At least a dozen of his recordings have recently been found in the Aware tape vaults and 'The Souls Of Black Folks' is the pick of them. It features Kenneth's vocals and an equally impressive unknown female lead who adds more mystery to the project. From the same Atlanta label source comes Miss Louistine's take on the Sam Dees' song 'Extra, Extra'. Originally recorded by Ben E King as an album track, Louistine's punchier take featured on a recent 100 Club Anniversary 45 and is well in-demand.
