Just When You Thought It Couldn’t Get Any…BETTER

Warren Raye & The Infernal Blues Machine “It’s The Feeling I Get” / “I Can’t Turn You Down”

Label:  Kent Select City Records 
Catalogue Number: CITY 086
Release Date: End of January 2023 
Format: 7’

Yet again a new 100 Club Anniversary 45 has been instantly acclaimed and has become highly sort-after on release. Warren Raye’s ‘It’s The Feeling I Get’ is now available on a commercial pressing and this superb Crossover number will be one of the biggest sellers of the year. 

A later version by Damion & Denita was released on their obscure eponymous Rocket LP but its of-its-time boogie passage has put DJs off playing it over the years. Warren Raye delivers the definitive version and his singing is equally masterful on the flip side – ‘I Can’t Turn You Down’ – a song that recently featured on a Kent Masterpieces CD by Melanie Burke. Both recordings are discoveries from Mickey Stevenson’s unissued tapes cache.
