Just got the Carl Hall CD of his complete Loma and Atlantic recordings. 4 octave voice. Many Ragavoy productions. Some over the top[[ala Lorraine Ellison), but man, the good stuff is just incredible!!! What Kind Of Fool Am I is the standout track for me. Every lover of soul music should own this CD. VERY informative liner notes by Bill Dahl.
I have this cd on my amazon wishlist and you have just persuaded me to purchase it. Thank you imnokid.Quote:

Agree about quality of music, not about quality of sleevenotes. Bill Dahl has completely missed the Alley and Soul Sneekers LP from 1979 on which Hall provides lead vocals on many tracks.Quote:

At long last a Carl Hall collection! I'm really enjoying this CD I have not stop playing it since it arrived. I hope this release will inspire some other company to issued his Mercury sides. I wouldn't label this so much as a Deep Soul collection. With tracks like "Need Somebody To Love", "Mean It Baby" " I Don't Wanna Be [[Your Used To Be)', and "What Kind of Foll Am I?" We must have his take on "Summertime" on CD! It is by far the very best version ever recorded next to Billy Steward's. Vermettya Royster [[Sisters Love) who I always say is the female Carl Hall sings a mean version as well.

Carl sings his heart out on Let The Music Begin, produced and arranged by Jack Nitzsche.
