Recording information: PAC-3 Recording Studio, Inc., Detroit, MI; Stax Records, Inc., Memphis, TN. Photographers: Maldwin Hamlin; Ferd Toma. Arrangers: Rudy Robinson; Aaron Willis. A import coupling of the harpist's first and third LPs for Stax's Enterprise subsidiary and the best spot to inaugurate a Little Sonny CD collection. 1970's New King is mostly instrumental and places Sonny in a funky, contemporary setting; 1973's Hard Goin' Up was his best album for the firm, benefitting from excellent material spotlighting his vocal talents in a soul-slanted format. Stax offers New King by itself as a domestic CD. ~ Bill Dahl
