 <\/p>\n

Greetings all.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today\u2019s selection is another lesson from the chapter where the old sage tells you to remember to flip over those 45s.<\/p>\n

If memory serves, I first encountered the Magictones<\/strong> via Odub\u2019s Soul Sides<\/strong>, where I was knocked on my ass by the epic breakbeat that opens their 1970 cover of the Parliament\u2019s<\/strong> \u2018Good Old Music\u2019.<\/p>\n

Naturally, I set out in search of my own copy. It took me a little while to file it, bit when I did I w as happy as the old record collecting clam, because there was almost as much heat on the b-side as there was on the top.<\/p>\n

There, opposite \u2018Good Old Music\u2019 was a fantabulous, funky bit of sweet soul. \u2018I\u2019ll Make It Up To You\u2019, opens with psychedelic sounding guitar, which is soon joined by electric sitar, and some tight drums. The Magictones themselves soon follow with some delicious harmony singing.<\/p>\n

The group, Virginia McDonald, Tyrone Douglas, Tyrone Berkeley and Calvin Stephenson<\/strong> (and several other members over the course of their career) recorded just over a dozen 45s for six different Detroit labels between 1965 and 1972.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll Make It Up To You\u2019 was recorded and released in 1969, and was a regional hit in Detroit and Windsor, Ontario.<\/p>\n

It is a very groovy record indeed, and I hope you dig it.<\/p>\n

See you on Friday.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Keep the faith<\/strong><\/p>\n
