A mighty deep dig into the overlooked soul scene in Virginia,put together by Legend Levis Guess & compiled by the same people who gave us the fantastic Raw Soul/Ol Virginia Soul compilations a number of years back (all reviewed here and on the old blog). The set focuses on the special studio productions of Lenis Guess, head of LGA Records, and a strong force in the underground scene in Norfolk, a City East of Richmond in Virginia, and one that had its own great little soul scene for a number of years back in the day! Some of the material here was issued on 45,s but a number of others also never saw the light of day back in the 1970s, yet are killers that resonate equally well with the singles, Raw Soul & Funk with a nicely gritty vibe, and some slight traces of the more upbeat modes that were hitting Virginia at the time,7 Tracks are unreleased.. No tasters for these at all!..No northern but a damn good album of rarities!!!
