Notes
Lee Dorsey’s breakout album from 1965!
Lee’s Dorsey’s effervescent personality was simple for legendary producer Allen Toussaint to work on and with the Sansu house band — The Meters — they crafted a string of classic New Orleans funk records that resonated around the world; if not always big hits, always hugely influential, and the cream are featured here. This uncompromising collection captures Dorsey at the top of his game and forms part of a complete retrospective by Charly Records.
This is the first time ever that Dorsey’s unique output has been accurately curated, uniting all of his contemporaneous recordings — plus unreleased material — inextricably linked with his four landmark albums recorded between 1961 and 1978. This fabulous package focusses on Lee’s breakout album Ride Your Pony — Get Out Of My Life Woman that propelled the singer to No. 28 pop/ No. 7 R&B with the Junior Walker inspired title track in 1965.
