Klicky Robinson

I'm continuing to explore the worlds of those New Orleans gals this week with the delightfully named Klicky Robinson whose only release this Mode 45 would appear to be. "You're Hurting The One Who Loves You" is a really strong waltz time ballad with a haunting melody, some emotional vocals from Klicky and - it hardly needs to be said - a first class arrangement and production from the great Wardell Quezergue. Love the piano playing and the subdued horns as well. The funky flip is pretty good too. A very worthwhile double sider.

Notes ~

1. My great friend Greg Burgess has spotted certain vocal similarities between Klicky's voice and the lead singer of the Fabuletts whom you can listen to here. He may well be right in thinking that Klicky was the group's lead singer. Can anybody confirm?

2. "When I wanna see you" can be found on the Funky Delicacies CD "Wardell's Sixty Smokin' Soul Senders" - but remember that good sound quality is the last thing to expect with CDs from this source.
