The 1960s had more than its share of masterful deep soul balladeers who could rip your heart and guts out with their melismatic, gospel-infused cries as they delivered tales of passionate eternal love and permanently broken hearts. Oscar Toney, Jr. was one of the greatest: the Selma Alabama-born singer's seven singles and solitary album for Bell Records rate high up with the crowning achievements of southern soul, and his spine-chilling revival of 'For Your Precious Love' was a major R&B smash, outdoing saleswise equally classic versions by Garnet Mimms, Jackie Wilson The Impressions, and even the definitive take by Jerry Butler. From his Gospel roots, to the outstanding successes at Bell Records, recorded at American Studios (famous for everyone from Eternity's Children to The Box Tops to Merrilee Rush to Elvis himself, yes indeed!!) and produced by the famed Papa Don Schroeder, this CD is the COMPLETE Bell recordings. Yes, ALL of the classic 1967-68 sides PLUS as a bonus, of not one but TWO previously unreleased recordings...just for you! This is a masterpiece of Soul, available for the first time on CD in Europe and beautifully remastered in strict RevOla fashion! The gorgeous package is enhanced by detailed notes from the wonderful TIm Tooher. This is a MUST for all fans of Deep Soul.and hell, any kind of soul...
