Little Milton's fourth LP for Chess originally released in 1969 features a selection of brassy versions of old R&B hits and original Soul songs, some featuring Donny Hathaway in the studio band. Little Milton Campbell first made impact when he hit #1 on the R&B chart in 1965 with the roaring Soul-Blues of 'We're Gonna Make It' on Chess Records. In a career lasting 50 years, this son of a Mississippi sharecropper also recorded for Sun and Bobbin in the '50s, moving to Stax in the '70s with a Watt Stax movie appearance and more hit singles, then a wealth of LPs on Malaco in the '80s and '90s and finally on Telarc shortly before his sad death in 2005.

Sometimes everything comes together on a perfect records and that happened for Little Milton in 1969 with “Grits Ain’t Groceries. “ Songs that professes love of outlandish proportions, if a man sung theese for you, you would swoon indeed.

Shimmering guitar, hard-punching horns, thumping bass, perfectly paced drums and heartfelt singing mix to create as good an R & B records as you can find. Theese songs combines a near Shakespearean chorus with swaggering and braggadocio verses that match incredible claims with a voice ready to back them up. Do not take Little Milton lightly. --- nightlysong.com
