Spread Your Love

2015 collection. A great songwriter and a true hero among lovers of deep and southern 60s soul, Jimmy Holiday's reputation rests largely on the two dozen plus sides that he recorded for Minit between 1966 and 1970. SPREAD YOUR LOVE is the first CD to bring together all 26 of Jimmy's Minit recordings (including two duets cut with labelmate Clydie King). Although most of Jimmy's best-known songs were written for others, including Ray Charles and Jackie DeShannon, he always saved something special for himself. 'The Turning Point' and 'Everybody Needs Help' have been collector favorites for almost 50 years now and their popularity will surely be enhanced once this CD hits the streets. Jimmy's fans will need no exhortations to buy this. For those who don't know him so well, the voyage of discovery awaits.
