John Richbourg, a leading DJ at Nashville's 50,000-watt R \u0026amp; B station WLAC, was an influential, driving force in this scene, especially since he joined Sound Stage 7 Records as a producer in the mid 60s. Richbourg created groundbreaking hits for the best soul singers of the label, among others for Roscoe Shelton from Lynchburg, Tennessee. Shelton began with The Fairfield Four and The Skylarks as a gospel singer, before a long-lasting change in 1958 at the behest of Ernie Young, owner of Excello Records. Roscoe made seven singles for Excello by 1961, but he took the most important step when he signed with Sims Records, where he cracked the national R \u0026amp; B charts with Strain On My Heart in 1965. After switching to Sound Stage 7 the following year, Shelton landed another hit with Easy Going Fellow and made more recordings for SS7 until 1968, then retired from the show business. This comprehensive compilation with 28 tracks from Roscoe's years at SS7 offers the deepest collection of this soul pioneer in it's most productive time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrain On My Heart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Best Friend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Is The Key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI\u0026amp;#39;m Tryin\u0026amp;#39; To Quit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Comes And Goes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster Mind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep Your Mind On Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWedding Cake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Fire Still Burns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Eyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Know Your Heart Has Been Broken\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy Going Fellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoll With The Punch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho Walks In (When I Walk Out)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou\u0026amp;#39;re Living Too Fast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoon As Darkness Falls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Man\u0026amp;#39;s Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI\u0026amp;#39;m In Way Too Deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTonight\u0026amp;#39;s My Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunning For My Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere\u0026amp;#39;s A Heartbreak Somewhere\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can\u0026amp;#39;t Stand To Be Without You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Want To Keep You (If You Want To Stay)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Ought To Take Time Out For Your Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI\u0026amp;#39;m Ready (To Love You Now)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou\u0026amp;#39;re The Dream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI\u0026amp;#39;m Still The Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"503","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50792162885928,"sku":"70853579082","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/3542232.jpg?v=1763992519","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/shelton-roscoe-best-of-cd-70853579082","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
