Description:

[Malaco 1000 Best Selection] 30 titles (+3 compilations) from Malaco Records, the famous label that inherited the tradition of Stax Records and High Records and was loved by soul fans all over the world as the savior of Southern Soul in the 80's, are now available for only 1,000 yen! Johnny Taylor, who was the No.1 star of Stax after Otis Redding's death, has arrived at this memorable first album from Malaco, his best partner since Stax, after many twists and turns! More than half of the songs were written by George Jackson, one of Southern Soul's finest writers, with Paul Kelly lending his skills to the chart-topping single "Lady My Whole World Is You" and the exhilarating "A Love to Call Mine". This is a great masterpiece that became a benchmark of what Southern Soul was in the 80's. A great masterpiece that became a benchmark for what Southern Soul was in the 80's! The opening track "This Is Your Night" reminds me of Sam Cooke, and "After Hours Joint" has a mellow and relaxed mood as the title suggests. Original jacket with commentary.
