Legend has it that when the action came to play Brighton, legions of mods the Vespa scooter in waiting at the entrance the city and escorted them through the streets to the concert hall, forming a sort of triumphant procession. The Action were the favorites with Who (first period) and Creation of mods original, ie the most snobs, most purists, those who listened Motown productions exclusively and dressed like Miles Davis . The shares had their neighborhoods Marquee club mythical Swinging London , where they opened for regular Who . For this story.
These fans blue eye-soul (ie . the soul played by White), had within them a lethal weapon, a white singer polished Reggie King, whose unctuous voice as the Nutella (drool) befitted ideally like. Paul weller , singer Jam in the liner notes of the first vinyl reissue of the group paid tribute to him in fine style: "If Steve Marriot (Ed. : singer Small faces) is exceptional, in my reggie King himself is even higher since her singing is always natural. It is a true soul singer . " Added to this that is in him a clarity, a gentle almost absent from the register of a more manly James Royal or Chris Farlowe . It also why for me, Reggie King is my favorite in the genre.
The directory of Action was only black and showed a very good taste. Tamla Motown , Stax, Atlantic and basta. But if we remember them, if I bother to talk about it more specifically to two moments of eternity, two pieces they have not written " wasn't it you " first taken by classical everyone billie davis to petula clarke , they offer the ultimate version. Secondly and most importantly, a replay "sincere i lost my baby", a flagship Temptations, which surpass the original, however, enough killing. This intro of Rickenbacker, these hearts heavenly ... All produced by George Martin, Beatles producer . What a dream.
But we are in 1966, the psychedelic emerges, such action becomes obsolete and fall apart. As for Reggie King, it is death in October last few days before Solomon Burke ... what misery. David Guetta and he is still alive.
