Twenty-four track collection of Shirley Ellis’ output for Congress and Columbia recorded between 1963 and 1967, this set includes Shirley’s signature hits ‘The Nitty Gritty’, ‘The Name Game’, ‘The Clapping Song’ and the huge Northern Soul smash ‘Soul Time’ plus highlights from her “In Action” and “Sugar, Let’s Shing-A-Ling: Soul Time With Shirley Ellis” albums. You can hear how much Amy Winehouse took from Shirley’s vocal style and delivery – that mix of sass and toughness coupled with a sense of humour. ‘Back Track’ is another big stomper and her version of Barbara Mason’s ‘Yes I’m Ready’ is also superb.
