Notes/Reviews

This album is considered by many - including the late Dave Godin - to be the greatest deep soul album of all time (I'm a Loser 1969). To satisfy the demand from those who missed its previous (and very brief) Japanese CD reissue in the early 1990s, Kent is honored to restore I'm A Loser to catalog, as part of this retrospective of Doris' two year collaboration with another R&B legend, Jerry Williams Jr. a.k.a. Swamp Dogg. As well as Doris' two Swamp-produced albums, the CD also features the first reissue - in 36 years! - of both sides of Doris' rare US Jay Boy single (originally released as Doris Willingham). The sleeve notes include Swamp Dogg's own reminiscences of the sessions that produced this monumentally soulful music.
