Info Note:
Long overdue release of this classic Soul album originally released on Maple Records featuring 14 additional tracks! Lee Moses may not be a familiar name to most, but to fans of '60s and '70s Soul music, this album has built up a cult following since it's release over 30 years ago. 23 tracks total including 'Got The Will', 'Every Boy And Girl', 'Free At Last', 'Hey Joe' and the title track.

Review:
A lost deep soul set from Lee Moses -- a relatively obscure vocalist, but one who we'd rank right up there with James Carr, Wilson Pickett, or any of their contemporaries! Lee's music has a hard southern soul feel to it -- sounding almost like a pile of 45s from a label like Sound Stage 7, or some more obscure imprint from below the Mason-Dixon line -- even though the record was issued on the Maple label up north. And possibly it's Lee's odd northern placement with a deeply southern style that never got him his due back in the day -- but that loss is our gain, as the record's an under-discovered treasure that's filled with really hard-wailing soul tunes! There's a slightly garagey feel to the production -- quite gritty at times, with even more of an earthier undercurrent than you'd hear on work from Memphis or Muscle Shoals -- and Lee matches this sound wonderfully with a really raspy approach to vocals. Titles include a great version of "California Dreaming", plus the tracks "Time & Place", "Got That Will", "Every Boy & Girl", "Hey Joe", "Free At Last", and "Adorable One". Expanded package features 14 bonus tracks -- everything that Moses ever recorded -- with titles that include "Diana", "My Adorable One", "I Can't Take No Chances", "Never In My Life", "She's A Bad Girl", "Dark End Of The Street", "Day Tripper", and "I'm Sad About It".
