The Daily Choice: Shirley Ann Lee - There’s A Light
I’ve been skimping on the older joints as of late, as I’ve been hurriedly attempting to keep up with the onslaught of music catapulting on to my Inbox each and every day. I say this though sometime faithful readers, Numero Group is the shit. They’ve been digging deep in to the deepest of funk, soul, goombay, downriver shit for a good amount of time, and each and every foray they make is more interesting than the last.
They’re newest excursion, or newest to me, is a little trip to a tiny town called Ecorse, Michigan, where a man named Felton Williams recorded the lives and loves of a bunch of people you, I, and everyone else have never heard of. The absolutely gem, amongst a lot of shiny rocks, on this album is Shirley Ann Lee, a strong-voiced crooner that absolutely nails four joints. This track “There’s A Light” is quite deservedly the opening track, and I challenge you to listen to it and not want to consume the entirety of Numero Group’s impressive catalog.
