KIM WESTON - LITTLE BY LITTLE AND BIT BY BIT
Sadly, Kim Weston's records recorded after she left Motown in '67 are unheard by most, as they never achieved the success they deserved. Kim's voice was massive and powerful and the material was great, but for whatever reason (maybe the fact that her and her husband Mickey Stevenson sued Motown?) these records never got airplay and sold in small numbers.
This excellent side was first issued by the tiny Mikim label and was licensed by Stax/ Volt for national distribution; even though it's a fantastically catchy record (and who wouldn't love the faux-phone call breakdown) it went unnoticed.
