BIG JOHN HAMILTON
Based on heartbreaking pleas like “How Much Can a Man Take” and “I Have No One,” Big John Hamilton occupies his own special place in the southern soul pantheon as archetypal obscure soul master. Until now, frustratingly little was known of the man but all is revealed in this first-time overview of his ultra-essential sides cut for the Minaret and SSS labels circa ‘67-71. Big John proves across this set that he could do it all with characteristic aplomb; from southern-fried funk to hillbilly-soul.
