WELCOME TO LPCDREISSUES
• Continuing Ace’s survey of the King label vocal group output. The three previous volumes have all been well received by doo wop fans.• As before a mix of stalwart groups like the Charms, the Royals (later renamed the Midnighters), and the Five Keys are compiled together with rarer acts.• Despite being the fourth volume there is no drop in quality - there are even seven previously unreleased tracks, unearthed during the Ace team’s recent visit to the Nashville King vaults.• Compilation and sleeve notes by Gordon Skadberg of Early Bird Records.• As well as the unreleased many of these tracks are on legitimate CD release for the first time.• There is very little overlap with the CDs planned for the individual King acts.
