From what I can gather, this is the only release from the mysterious C.C. Jones, and what an amazing record it is. With a moody backging track, C.C's voice is so loaded down with echo and reverb it sounds as though he's floating in from another track entirely!
Definitely not hit record material, but it's a great example of how psychedelia had infiltrated soul by the end of the '60's. This song could easily fit on one of Lee Fields recent albums as well.
C.C, who are you?

Nice one! Thanks.
I think I may know who C.C. Jones is. I worked with him in Phoenix Arizona in the early 80's. He played piano and sang at the bar. Crazy-talented. This sounds just like him. Ironically his funeral was today. https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix/2017/11/30/cc-jones-longtime-performer-phoenix-hotels-resorts-dies-house-fire-funeral/850633001/
