Apartment #9 / Cry Like A Baby

Deep Soul #12

NM

Little Johnnie Hamilton was a 60s Los Angeles soul singer whose records are all hard to find, despite their quality. The searing deep soul slowy ‘Apartment # 9’ is a million miles from the funk of ‘The Git Down’, recorded at the same session and issued on the Watts Way label in 1967 as a two-part single. Hamilton wails away his pain on a sparse number abetted by some righteous girl backing singers.

‘Cry Like A Baby’ was a release on the one-off Soul Shack label which is a more mainstream offering of much charm, complete with strings. – Ace Records
