CANDI STATON – Im Just A Prisoner (2023 Reissue) – LP – Vinyl

LP – Black Vinyl.

Im Just A Prisoner was released in 1970 and remains a definitive slice of Southern soul. Recorded at Rick Halls legendary FAME studio in Muscle Shoals, Im Just A Prisoner pulled together five tracks Id Rather Be An Old Mans Sweetheart (Than A Young Mans Fool), Im Just A Prisoner (Of Your Good Lovin), Evidence, You Dont Love Me No More and Sweet Feeling – that had appeared as A and B-sides on early singles issued in 1969 and 1970. These were augmented by another five tracks recorded specifically for the album; Someone You Use, Get It When I Want It, Do Your Duty, Thats How Strong My Love Is and Another Mans Woman, Another Womans Man. Like Southern fried chicken, this music is essential food for your ears.
