Description:

Clarence Carter — This Is Clarence Carter 180-gram vinyl import LP Remastered using pure analog components only from the master tape to the cutting head Clarence Carter, blind from birth, was a blues singer with lascivious wit, a talented guitarist, a songwriter with a twinkle in his eye, and a champion of down-to-earth soul grooves who taught himself to play the guitar. He sang in a gospel choir, completed a degree in music, and grounded the duo Clarence & Calvin but was not, however, very successful. After a car crash involving Calvin Scott, Carter started on a solo career and signed a contract with Rick Hall and the Fame label as a soloist. Among the earliest singles recorded at the Muscle Shoals studio were a few hits. After leaving Fame for Atlantic, he managed to enter the Top 20 of the R&B charts with "Looking for a Fox." His breakthrough came with "Slip Away," which sold a million copies and was awarded a Gold Record. The legendary Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals remained the home basis, as it were, for Carter during his career with Atlantic. This Is ... begins with a contemplative, soft sound. "Do What You Gotta Do," written by Jim Webb, is a lovely, melancholic mid-tempo ballad, saturated with Barry Beckett's keyboard and smothered by lush, plaintive winds. But the man is primarily funky here...as three danceable, finger-snapping tracks prove; "Wind It Up," with further witty improvisations and a fervid organ solo, the highly syncopated, playful "Thread the Needle," and the smoky, irresistible "Funky Fever" — all written by Carter himself. Dan Penn's and Spooner Oldham's "Slippin' Around" has an unorthodox bossa nova-like beat that is reminiscent of Ray Charles's "What'd I Say," while Carter's unmistakable chuckle is to be heard for the first time on the riotous funk-rock number "I'm Qualified," which has the very same unique, infectious groove as was to be heard on Wilson Pickett's "In the Midnight Hour." "She Ain't Gonna Do Right," composed by the same man, brings more Alabama Country to the mix, whereby Beckett contributes a catchy, persistent organ riff in the refrain. Soul, blues, funk, R&B — a gigantic album from a giant of the genre.
