ANTHOLOGY (Jr. Walker and the All-Stars)
One of the Motown artists that I discovered more or less by accident is Jr. Walker and the All-Stars. I knew their big hit “Shotgun” of course, but I picked up a double album called Anthology (1974) on Motown Records cheap, and it was great all the way through. Jr. Walker’s distinctive style on the saxophone drives their sound. Wikipedia says that Jr. Walker and the All-Stars is one of Motown’s “signature acts”, and I was certainly happy to discover more of that great music.
