Description

2007 digitally remastered and expanded edition of the veteran Soulster's 1979 album. A veteran composer, vocalist, guitarist, and pianist, Prince Phillip Mitchell's roots are in vintage R&B, although he has achieved semi-cult status in soul circles. Mitchell sang with both The Premiers and The Checkmates in the early '60s. He wrote hits recorded by Mel & Tim, Millie Jackson, Joe Simon, Archie Bell & The Drells and Candi Staton and Norman Connors. His second album for Atlantic, Top Of The Line, spawned the single "Paying The Price b/w Let's Get Wet" which fared modestly on the US R&B chart, but the second single "I'm So Happy" became an anthem on the UK's Northern and Modern Soul scenes, and changes hands for exorbitant sums on the collector's market. A previously unreleased Northern Soul-styled instrumental "Take Me Away" is included on this remastered & expanded re-issue..... 1. Top Of The Line 2. Use Your Body 3. Highlight Of My Life 4. In Between Lovers 5. I'm So Happy 6. If It Ain't Love, It'll Go Away 7. Paying The Price 8. Let's Get Wet 9. Take Me Away (Instrumental) (Previously Unreleased) (Bonus Track)
