Quite simply a gorgeous soul ballad that is the sound that brings to mind imagery of a NOLA nightclub at 4AM and the last slow dance. Once again, Allen Toussaint turns in a fantastic song (which goes straight to the heart in its simplicity) with an equally direct and pleasing production/ arrangement. Willie West turns in such a beautiful, heartfelt vocal as well.
Willie West (born and raised an hour away from New Orleans) bean his singing career at age 15 as a member of The Sharks, and has spent his whole life in music (read an excellent, comprehensive bio and history over at "
Home Of The Groove".)
from 1966...
WILLIE WEST - GREATEST LOVE
Hi, love the site. One question, are you ever planning on making the songs downloadable again? That was such a big draw, being able to listen to these wonderful songs over and over.
ReplyDeleteAs I have explained several times already in posts, the hosting site I used does not allow embedding anymore. This is how it's gonna be from here out. If you need to download the track, use the website called "Listen To Youtube".
