In the late 60's, the 70's and part of the 80's the Americans had all these soldiers staying in all these different countries (and still but that's another story) and in some of those places the locals would start up small record companies to cater to the soldiers stationed at those places, specially Taiwan, and those companies would crank out all these bootleg albums and this is one of them, an soul album with a bunch of songs from Solomon Burke, Wilson Pickett, Joe Tex, Don Covay and Ben E. King and I'm pretty sure this is one from Taiwan.... I've got a whole bunch of these kind of albums, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Tom Jones, the Stones and more, often with terrible atrocious English, often quite funny actually....
GET IT HERE
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteHenk, this "Terrible Atrocious English" that you refer to; do you mean the audio is sung by someone other than the featured artist? Or do you mean the written text on the covers? I'm very curious as to what you mean, please explain. Thanx...
ReplyDeleteMe too!!!
DeleteOne of my favorite songs in Chinese is Please Mr. Postman. Anything on that level is seriously coveted.
No these are bootlegs, the original albums from the original artists, the writing, on the covers its usually still ok, its on the labels on the records where things get crazy, often almost gibberish....
