The Lovelites - Love So Strong - The Lovelite Recordings (2023) P-Vine (FLAC) + Bonus Tracks (MP3) - Rare Soul

Formed around lead vocalist Patty Hamilton with the help of legendary Chicago producer Clarence Johnson, the Lovelites were one of the finest teen soul groups in recorded history. Despite the poor sales of their sole studio album "With Love From The Lovelites (1970)" they would remain active, recording and releasing a number of singles before fading into obscurity after under going a few changes in personel. For the first time ever, P-Vine collected these singles and previously unreleased tracks, and released them as a double LP & CD! From textbook Chicago soul, to tender ballads, all the way to modern dance numbers, this album has it all! Unreleased tracks include covers of The Stylistics’ “Betcha By Golly Wow”, Michael Jackson’s “Got To Be There”, and The Righteous Brother’s “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling”. These girls had quite a few Northern Dancers that went huge! Were also fortunate to have another Boot coming up next. each album has tracks the other does not so you have everything these girls recorded! Bonus tracks listed under back cover.
