Dr Victor Olaiya & his All-Stars

https://amf.didiermary.fr/victor-olaiya-all-stars/

Dr Victor Olaiya is considered the bridge between Ghanaian Highlife and what would become Afrobeat.

His musical style was influenced by James Brown, with horn parts harmonized in Brown’s style, as opposed to the mostly unison lines of Afrobeat. The music includes the swinging percussion of Tony Allen, but not the syncopated style that [...]

@barrd I would also have thrown Shout in there, coincidentally. Perhaps ‘Downtown’ (not the Abbey) from Petula Clark? Choosing just *ONE* of The Monkees (not a real band) oeuvre would be a tough one, but I’m rather fond of ‘Daydream Believer’. And, perhaps more obscurely, but an absolute gem, IMO: Elenore by The Turtles.

Pitch in, all you lurkers, and contribute.

Ellie Greenwich - Composes, Produces, and Sings

I posted an album from this artist a few weeks ago, and since then have been trying hard to get my hands on this, her other album, at a reasonable cost. This arrived this morning from New York, via Chicago, London and Exeter.
As a writer and producer, she is very important in the history of rock/pop music, and well worth researching for anyone interested in such matters.
