BRAND NEW RELEASE: "You Gotta Have Soul: Raw Sonoran R&B and Funk" 1957-1971. A ZIA Records RSD 2020 exclusive, featuring 11 Tracks pressed on high grade Sunset colored wax. A very limited release. To purchase a red wax copy of this release, go to The Light In The Attic web site.
In the late ‘50s and on through the 1960s, Phoenix, Arizona, was home to a thriving R&B scene. Though no other song catapulted onto the national charts like Dyke and the Blazer’s signature “Funky Broadway,” inspired by the South Phoenix road of the same name, regional soul and funk acts picked up steam in the Valley of the Sun as established artists passed through on the way to the West Coast and performers traveled along the bustling Southern California to Texas black corridor.
Culled from the tape vault of Audio Recorders of Arizona by music archivist and legendary Arizona disc jockey John “Johnny D” Dixon with ZIA’s Jason Woodbury, You Gotta Have Soul: Raw Sonoran R&B and Funk (1957-1971), compiles 11 essential desert R&B rarities, from Chuck Womack and the Sweet Souls’ breakbeat heavy “Ham Hocks & Beans” to the raw snap of Jimmie “Playboy” McKnight’s “Little Anne” to the brown-eyed Latin soul of Eddie Dimas & the Upsets.
