Description

[Machine Translation] Memphis-based singer Ollie Nightingale released "Sweet Surrender" in 1973, one of the best Southern Soul albums of this period. Prior to the release of the album, the 7-inch single released in 1971 was reissued. The A-side, "I Don't Know Why I Love You," which was covered by Lynn White in 1993, is simply the best. The song has a pleasant and sophisticated sound, and the deep vocals with a high tone voice are irresistible. It is now a very popular crossover soul song. The coupling song, "I'll Take Care Of You," is a funky cover of a Bobby Bland song. The original is hard to find. Don't miss this opportunity to buy it.

Description in Japanese

アイ・ドント・ノウ・ホワイ・アイ・ラヴ・ユー c/w アイル・テイク・ケア・オブ・ユー [初回生産限定盤] / オリー・ナイチンゲイル

メンフィスを拠点に活動したシンガー、オリー・ナイチンゲイルが1973年に発表した、この時期のサザン・ソウルを代表するピカイチの名盤『スウィート・サレンダー』。そのアルバム・リリースに先立ち、71年に発売された7インチ・シングルを再発。リン・ホワイトのカヴァー (93年)も人気のA面の「I Don't Know Why I Love You」がとにかく最高。心地好く洗練されたサウンドと、ハイトーン・ヴォイスによるディープな歌唱がたまらない。いまではクロスオーヴァー・ソウルとして人気の秀逸きわまりない一曲。カップリングの「I'll Take Care Of You」は、ボビー・ブランド演目のファンキーなカヴァー。オリジナルは入手困難な一枚。この機会にぜひ。
