On The Real Side (Selections From The Songbook Of Tommy Tate)


A month or few ago, for a friend of a friend, I put together a discography collection of Tommy Tate. Admittedly, though I had the near entirety of his recordings, I was not all that familiar with the man's work. I knew of his brief stretch at Stax with The Nightingales, his stellar mid-70s southern soul cuts for KoKo Records, and that he was highly regarded among deep soul aficionados as a songwriter ~ specifically for the cream of Malaco's crop. In amassing Tate's discography, it quickly became clear that a songbook was in order to further familiarize and educate myself. As luck would have it, lots of great singers have tackled Tate's efforts with both vigor and valor. That's at the forefront of this collection which features soul superstars alongside some fantastic unheralded singers, spans five decades, and showcases Tate's journeyman prowess with a breadth of styles from deep soul and southern fried funk to electric blues and disco, plus it's peppered with a few pop oriented numbers and a touch of gospel soul. I hope you enjoy it as I do.

Deep Dish Delicacies Vol. 67 {1967 Special}

 

As we step into the latter end of the 60s (my favorite time in soul music), it should come as no surprise that this collection keeps growing larger. That said, I am drawing a line in the sand here! Ten parts is my maximum and more than enough for any deep soul fiend. It's a sprawling affair featuring a wide array, so take it in stride my friends. Though mined from earlier editions of Deep Dish Delicacies, this is not a simple drag and drop collection. All tracks have been re-sourced and/or remastered for this project. Additionally, more than 150 of the tracks here have not yet been featured in the series. Enjoy.

New Recipes Volume 22

 

Headed into 2024 I planned to scale back on the New Recipes series, limiting it to just two two-parters -- one in summer for material released late 2023 to mid 2024, and one in winter mostly for material released later in the year -- however, the timing of the New Recipes Specials back in July made it seem like a little overkill. I meant to post the first one soon after, in early autumn but let myself get carried away with the chronological Deep Dish Delicacies Specials instead. Last month I finally dropped the summer edition and keeping with the blog's long-running tradition, we're kicking off this new year with the winter edition, enjoy.
