Soul Brother Records are delighted to release for Record Store Day 2017 one of the most elusive Soul LP’s of all time, a truly Holy Grail album. Susan Phillips ‘Soft sexy Soul’ was recorded for Sylvia Robinson’s All Platinum label 1971, pressed in small quantities. Few copies have ever surfaced, it is so rare that many collectors doubt if it was ever released, it is not listed on Discogs and it has never been recorded as selling on EBay. If an original copy were found today, it would surely sell for a substantial amount of money.
The album has that classic early 70’s New Jersey Orchestrated Soul sound. The album contains the in demand 2-step single ‘He Knows My Key (is always in the Mailbox)’ , the Northern Soul floater ‘Answer to my Prayer’ , Detroit sounding ‘Please Don’t Keep Me Lonely’ the multi paced ‘Where Do I go From Here’ and many great ballads like ‘He’s Gone’ and ‘This I’ll Guarantee’.
