I got a request for this and ive only had it a month!...Rare and unissued material from the late great Doris Troy. many tracks making their CD/Digital debut, plus one previously unissued track. Doris took the music world by storm with her 1963 smash “Just One Look.”
The Hollies, Anne Murray, and Linda Ronstadt would bring it back to the
charts, and countless artists including Bryan Ferry, Count Basie, Klaus
Nomi, and Harry Nilsson would later put their spin on it as well. In
1969, The Beatles signed her to their label, Apple Records, and an
eponymous, star studded album appeared later that year. In 1976
& 1977, after albums for the Polydor and People labels, she released
two singles on the Midland International label. The first contained the
notation “from the forthcoming album Another Look,” complete with an
assigned catalog number. However, an album never appeared. Near the end
of that decade, she collaborated with British Ambassador of Soul David
Nathan (Ex Blues & Soul Uk Mag) to record tracks, which finally made their way into the public
ear in 2018,some on vinyl, some only available digitally. This album collects these rare and hard to find tracks from the mid to late
’70s, and places them together to offer a definitive view of this period
of Troy’s career. Containing both 7″ and 12″ versions of the Midland
International material (most available again for the first time since
their original release), this set collects another track only previously
available on a UK compilation plus her material recorded with Nathan
including one previously unissued recording. This
collection proves just one look at Doris Troy is never enough. It is
time for Another Look, Doris as you,ve never heard her before, some will like it some will not, great rare dancers from the modern scene. Its hard to believe she has been gone for 20 years now.
