Essential album: Sam Dees - The Show Must Go On

Talcum Time is devoted to one of the finest Northern labels of all time, Okeh Records. A label that was under the Columbia umbrella, who gave them bigger budgets, allowing them to take more chances. Our Essential album is The Show Must Go On by Sam Dees. A gem of an album from the 1970s soul scene.
