This month Ace can reveal that we are affording the same treatment to perhaps Stax's biggest traditional soul artist of the post-Otis Redding era, with the first of two volumes that will cover the singles of Johnnie Taylor from 1965 through to the end of 1973 - a job long overdue, even if we do say so ourselves. Across our two volumes it's possible to trace JT's musical evolution from bluesy soul contender to bonafide soul superstar, from the consistent but comparatively modest hits he enjoyed during the label's 'blue' era to the non-stop top 10 R\u0026amp;B\/Top 50 Pop success that came his way after 'Who's Making Love' (a song he hated, incidentally!) put him front and centre in the Soul winners circle in 1968. This compilation features all of Taylor's 'blue' singles and carries his hit streak of the 'yellow' Stax era through to the end of 1970 with 'Steal Away'. Being a singles compilation we have endeavoured to use mono masters where we were able to find them. Some of these mono mixes differ considerably from the stereo versions that the world has become familiar with, and a number are being reissued here for the first time ever. As always, the superb remastering here is complemented by a booklet that features the usual high standard Kent annotation and a wealth of label shots and ephemera that makes the package as good to look at as it is to listen to!In the wake of the undoubtedly positive reception we are sure this collection will receive you can look forward to the fact that the second and final volume of Taylor's 45s will hopefully be with you by the end of 2025 or early 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Had A Dream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChanges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Got To Love Somebody's Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust The One I've Been Looking For\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Bluebird\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToe-Hold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAin't That Loving You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(For More Reasons Than One)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Can't Get Away From It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf I Had It To Do Over\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomebody's Sleeping In My Bed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrange Things (Happening In My Heart)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNext Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSundown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Ain't Particular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere There's Smoke There's Fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho's Making Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Trying\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake Care Of Your Homework\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHold On This Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTestify (I Wonna)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Had A Fight With Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Could Never Be President\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt's Amazing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Bones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMr. Nobody Is Somebody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteal Away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 029667113526\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kent Records Uk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.6.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kent Records Uk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52028811149543,"sku":"636107","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/2481\/7639\/files\/4425103-3389209.jpg?v=1777676745","url":"https:\/\/monumentsinruin.com\/products\/johnny-taylor-whos-making-love-stax-singles-as-bs-1966-70-cd","provider":"Monuments in Ruin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
