Hank Jacobs Elijah Rockin' With Soul / East Side

Hank Jacobs was an accomplished West coast keyboard player who had an instrumental hit with 'So Far Away' in 1964. He became a Los Angeles session man who worked on many recording sessions with arranger Arthur Wright with whom he had four releases on Alton Scott's Call Me label. 'Elijah Rockin' With Soul' created a buzz on the UK soul scene and it's urgent beat was perfect for Northern Soul dancefloors. The recording session was augmented by the cream of LA's musicians. The uber-cool 'East Side' with it's mid-tempo groove was initially his best-known track, having been appreciated by the Lowrider and Popcorn scenes since it's release.
