Fred Briggs - Sound off - Groove City 202

Freddy Briggs is one of those names that often crops up as a writer or producer of odd soul 45s or LP tracks.

He wrote the superbly melodic "Strung out over you" which the Dells cut for example.

But if he's known at all to the average soul fan it's as the husband/manager of the wonderful Kim Tolliver whose handful of 45s and 2 albums (one cut as Kimberly Briggs) are amongst the best female soul ever recorded.

However it must have been through choice that he spent his career in the back room, so to speak, for on the evidence of this marvelous 45 he could have been one of soul's greatest voices.

Listen to the power and authority he brings to the lyrics, not to mention his impeccable timing and good sense of dynamics.

I am a huge admirer of the work that F.Briggs has worked with.
I will leave the big picture to the webi-sodes etc.
Are you familiar with the track I have posted?


His work etc plus the items you speak about are well collected over here.

cheers Ray
