Long-awaited reissue of a rare '75 album by West Coast deep soul singer Vernon Garrett, one of his few albums! A deep funk classic, with Vernon's wild and powerful songs backed by white-hot performances from the likes of LTD and David T. Walker!
Vernon Garrett, a West Coast deep soul singer with a career spanning more than 40 years, said during a visit to Japan in 1995 that he "loved singing more than anything else". The long-awaited reissue of his rarest album, Going To My Baby's Place, which at the time was said to be "too rare to be priced"! The album contains several new and previously unreleased songs added to the singles released on the minor Watts USA label between 1973 and 1974, and is a masterpiece that showcases the unparalleled power of Vernon's wildly bluesy, powerful, and fiery vocals. Backed by the likes of LTD and David T. Walker, the funky backing is one of the highlights of the album. This is a long-awaited reissue of a great deep soul album that is more than just rare!
