HIGHLIGHT ** IN DE KIJKER

VEE-JAY RECORDS
Motown is the black-owned Great Lakes R&B label synonymous with the ’60s but before their reign was Chicago’s Vee-Jay Records, ruling the charts for nearly a decade prior to the rise of the Detroit imprint. The tale of Vee-Jay has been told before in a variety of compilations, but Charly’s 2014 box set Chicago Hit Factory: The Vee-Jay Story 1953-1966 is easily the most comprehensive chronicle, lasting ten discs and encompassing all of the chapters in the label’s wild history”.  Source / All Rights Reserved: https://www.allmusic.com/album/chicago-hit-factory-the-vee-jay-story-1958-1966-mw0002664877

LEYLA McCALLA
“Er is één ding, dat je zeker niet gaat doen bij het beluisteren van het derde album van Leyla McCalla, en dat is je vervelen. Haar album staat namelijk vol met de meest uiteenlopende muzikale stijlen en het knappe is dat Leyla van al deze stijlen toch iets eigens weet te maken. Leyla zal bij sommigen van ons bekend zijn als zangeres van de band The Carolina Chocolate Drops, een band die er ook niet vies van was om stijlen door elkaar heen te mengen” (…) .  Tekst: Peter Marinus, Alle Rechten Voorbehouden. https://www.bluesmagazine.nl/recensie-leyla-mccalla-the-capitalist-blues/
