Description
LP - Limited Edition 140g Clear Vinyl. Atlantic Records' 75th Anniversary Reissue.
Although Ben E King's name is synonymous with The Drifters, he only actually sang on a dozen tracks with them, most of which were recorded concurrent with the start of his own solo career. This compilation anthologises Ben's solo recordings between 1960-62, presenting his early singles plus a handful of standout album tracks.
All his early hits are here, including the Drifters-like First Taste Of Love, his first million-seller Spanish Harlem, his signature song Stand By Me, the lilting Latin shuffle of Amor, the dramatic, bluesy Here Comes The Night/Young Boy Blues, his Sex'n'Soul double-sider Ecstasy/Yes, the explosive Don't Play That Song, the soulful Too Bad, the haunting I'm Standing By and Goffin & King's Tell Daddy.
Ben E. King’s ‘Don’t Play That Song!’ album is pressed on a single clear LP and is a one time pressing.
This vinyl release is a part of Atlantic Records' 75th Anniversary vinyl collection.
