Carolyn Crawford – Get Up And Move / Sugar Boy 45 (Kent) 7″ Vinyl

This Kent single has been eagerly awaited for some time. Plays at the 100 Club and other venues of ill-repute, have made it a must-play, dancefloor-filling track.

Carolyn Crawford had a brief sojourn at Mickey Stevenson’s Mpingo label, in the early 70s, as a temporary member of Hodges, James & Smith when they were billed as The Firm Of Hodges, James, Smith & Crawford. Stevenson International’s tapes revealed that Mickey had also cut some solo tracks with Carolyn. ‘Get Up And Move’ has already wowed the Northern Soul world; this fabulous self-written song will cross over to all scenes. Its slow, steady, groove start builds up to an infectious rhythm that few can resist. Congas abound and a subtle brass section layers the music to perfection. The jazz element will see this 45 accepted on all rare black music scenes.
