Brook Benton, Children of Judah, Screamin' Jay Hawkins



The name of the band is Children of Judah, and the record "Waiting By The Gates Of Eden" produced by Barrie K. Sharpe in 1990. Mix of Funk, Soul y Acid Jazz. Shows up also in the compilation record "Give em more dope 1". Definetely one of my favourites Funk/Soul songs.

Screamin Jay Hawkins had a simliar show to that of Alice Cooper, only ten years before him. From the record "Voodo Jive" the all time classic: I put a Spell on you. (Dont believe what I said about Alice Cooper? Check the video of the song.)

Brook Benton 1962. I took me ten years to find this song, mainly beacause our friend Lou Reed used the same title on a song that became somewhat famous. So, for years all I did was stumble uppon covers and versions of his song, which has nothing to do with Brook's.
