As well as a hit single, this was also the title track of the fantastic album! Oscar became totally disillusioned by the music industry years ago! Last i heard of this great singer (2006), he was working part time as a security guard, but still occasionally performing. I think he is in his early 70s! He lives with his wife Carolyn and his dog, Princess in Phoenix City, Alabama.. + Informações

Oscar Toney, Jr. (born 26 May 1939, Selma, Alabama) was an American soul singer. Toney was raised in Columbus, Georgia, and sang gospel in churches while young. In his teens, he joined a gospel group called The Sensational Melodies of Joy, and after this joined secular group called The Searchers (no relation to The Searchers), who released a few singles between 1958 and 1961. In 1964, Toney released a solo single, "Can it All Be Love", on King Records, but did not garner any widespread notice. Toney then began working with the record producer Papa Don Schroeder, who used Toney as a backup replacement for James & Bobby Purify when one of the two singers was unavailable for a live performance. Schroeder had Toney signed to Bell Records in 1967, and his first single, a cover of "For Your Precious Love" by Jerry Butler & the Impressions, was produced by Chips Morman. The tune would be the first and most successful of Toney's four chart hits. His last single was 1969's "Down in Texas" b/w "Aint That True Love", which failed to chart, and Toney left Bell when Schroeder quit the music industry. In 1970, Toney released a single, "Down on My Knees", on Capricorn Records, but the tune did not chart; three more singles, all flops, followed on Capricorn, which dropped the singer in 1973.[1] Toney's career was tenuous in America, but the British love for Northern Soul resulted in a second wind.

A touch of stompin' soul from Oscar Toney Jr. Issued in the UK on Stateside in 1967.. + Informações

This was his first single, a cover of "For Your Precious Love" by Jerry Butler & the Impressions. Its been recorded by a lot of heavyweight Soul singers,including Jackie Wilson and Otis Redding,but this is probably my favourite version. Im terribly sorry about the skip.I decided to upload it anyway.... + Informações

SOUL - VOCAL . ( Reggae Hit of Ken Boothe ). + Informações

A great remake of an absolute classic. Released in late 1967, this was Oscar's last charting single (Billboard #'s: #90 Pop & #47 R&B in early 1968). It may not equal Clyde's original, though it comes damn close. Those 'printed directly onto the vinyl' labels that Bell used sure don't age well, as you can plainly see.. + Informações
