Lemana
The soul music that I loved and treasured was pretty well dead by 1974. A few of my heroes like Johnny Taylor and Joe Simon tried to transition to disco with notable chart success, but the soul was hollowed out. Somehow, I missed Leon Haywood's "Sugar lump." It's like the glory days had never left. Excellent song, about a girl too beautiful for tough town; much better than average Gene Page arrangement; and Leon's vocal is perfect. He doesn't have a particularly distinctive voice, so he must rely more on delivery than his peers. Right up to the over-the-top line without ever crossing it. The flip, ""That sweet woman of mine," while not as distinctive lyrically is also a wee gem, with understated but clever arranging touches and another faultless Haywood pitch. Bravos all round.
