Harold Hutton & The Dells – Lucky Boy / Thinkin About You

Description

Two more classic tunes from the Deptford Northern Soul Club dancefloor. Remastered for maximum effect.

Harold Huttons Lucky Boy was originally on the Chess sub-label, Checker.Released in 1965, an original goes for around 50 these days. Lucky Boy was the B-side of his debut single, Its A Good Thing, which launched him on a career that included regular spots on Soul Train during the 1970s.Filled with Motown-esque horn stabs, Lucky Boy builds into a bongo-powered frenzy.

The super soulful Dells flipside from a year later was initially on Cadet, another Chess subsidiary originally called Argo.Another 30-50 gem, if you can find an original
copy.Typical of the bands close harmony style, Thinkin’ About You is a mid-tempo groove with an insistent rhythm and some lush strings.All topped with a heart-warming baritone vocal on a classic piece of soul romanticism.
