THE SATISFACTIONS - TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT

The Satisfactions are a total mystery group, although (due to the names on the label), I am assuming this is a New York City recording.

Whoever they were, they whip up a real fury on this adrenaline charged Northern Soul-favored stomper.

As for the names on the label, they are quite an interesting trio- Valerie Capers (jazz musician/ arranger/ and the first blind graduate of Julliard, also cut the amazing r&b single "Wildcattin'" that I featured a few months back), Sammy Lowe (arranger for Sam Cooke and James Brown among many others), and Alfred V. Brown (violinist/ viola player who has also had a long career as a string arranger).

from 1967...
