I found myself a little uphill making this Vol 2 for some reason. I was trying to squeeze as many gems as I can in this comp, removing. replacing, adding.. Finally I told myself, what the hell...you all can do that on your own! lol So after all that I left it as is...there will be more comps ahead so I'm not sweating it, But for those with the same taste as I.. I think you'll be satisfied :)
I do hope you all enjoy and find some listening pleasures in this Vol.2 Of Killer Gems...

Just a little about these tracks...
01. Startells - You're Wrong About Me I Don't remember much about this record except The dark pink label & the B Side of "Falling In Love With You Girl" One of my fav cuz I love thier echoing & taunting mellow sound...
03. Gallahads - Sad Girl
Heres a little info I learned about this record on Beechwood label also Art Laboe's Starla label...at the time this record was realeased a group "The Chants" became The Gallahads, but after 2 releases from the unofficial Gallahads, The Orignal Jimmy Pikin Gallahads did the rest of the hit ballads..But still in all what a original "Sad Girl" from 1960 soon followed by many Artist/Groups!
04. Monitors - Since I Lost You Girl ever come home from buying a record & play the B side first cuz we already know what the A side sounds like? well this is one of those records that became a upbeat fav of mine, I normally don't like fast upbeat songs but this is one of those that caught my ear...Greetings (This Is Uncle Sam) as you know is the A side...
05. Jaggerz - It's Gonna Take A Miracle - I'm On The Outside Looking In
Lead singer from this group is Jimmy Ross, The Girl singer is no other than
Donna Groom from the Skyliners group, another great voice...
11. Lezlie Valentine - Love On A Two Way Street was written by Sylvia Robinson in 1968. This song was originally recorded by Lezli Valentine, was then recorded by The Moments in 1970...
20. Vibrations - Take a Step in My Direction ( Aesop's Fables cut 67') were aka Jayhawks & Marathons) They never had a hit but they made it to r&b & pop charts...
21. Intruders - Just A Little Devil With An Angel's Smile
I remember the grunts I made when I pulled this record from my 45's...dang thing had a bigass crack in it :( but thanks to one of my DJ contacts, I was able to get a nice copy of this 1966 favorite...
25. Mary Wells & Smokey Robinson - I Want You Around
Before Marvin & Kim & The Royal Jesters there was...
Mary & Smokey who produced this fav in 63 (anyone have other versions? please let me know) I Love this song..
Again, Big thanks to RossyBoy for this awsome cover,
I love it so much I'm gonna use it one more time!
Ok there you have it!, Enjoy!!
