Sehorn’s Soul Farm – 50 New Orleans Soul Classics (Two rare compilations previously only available on vinyl LP now on CD for the first time with bonus tracks)

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

In 1965 the famed talent scout and promotion man, Marshall Sehorn and the legendary producer/musician Allen Toussaint formed the Sansu label. Between them they completely revived the somewhat moribund New Orleans music scene of the mid to late sixties, signing the cream of the city’s soul and R&B acts.
