Happy Soul' Baby Be Good Chicken Crazy Go Home And Do It Keep The One You Got Sweet Sweet Woman Take The Fifth Amendment That's Your Baby You Can Tell You Need Me Baby You've Come A Long Way 'Buying A Book ' Anything You Wanna Know Buying A Book Get Your Lies Together Grandma Mary It Ain't Sanitary Sure Is Good That's The Way The Only Way Same Things You Did To Get It We Can't Sit Down Now Bonus tracks : Betwixt And Between Chocolate Cherry RPM picks up on a successful series begun by the Connoisseur Collection and strikes home with the next two volumes, planned but never released. The late Joe Tex was amongst the most popular Southern Soul artists of the mid-lae 60s. Equally at home with up-tempo songs and even disco, Joe's major successes came with a series of 'preaching' deep soul singles that espoused the down home values of life in America's Deep South. This series reissues all the Tex LP's on CD for the first time and will contain all his US and international hits, plus bonus tracks, recorded for Dial records until his death in 1982. Vol. 4 moves into 1969 with two more album also sold through Atlantic, Happy Soul and Buying A Book. Both albums were entirely written by Tex and whilst the performances are exemplary Tex soul they do offer a different perspective. Both packages come with extensive liner notes from Clive Richardson and fold out poster inlays with rare photos.
