KELLY FINNIGAN - Keep Me In Mind / Let Me Count The Reasons - 7'' - Midnight Blue Vinyl

7'' - Indies Exclusive Limited Edition 'Midnight Blue' Vinyl. 

Kelly Finnigan has teamed up with soul music legend Renaldo Domino for his next 45, out May 23rd via Colemine Records.

The A-Side is another recording mined from the “A Lover Was Born” sessions. ‘Keep Me In Mind' was first recorded by the Buffalo, NY duo Samson & Delilah and released on ABC records in 1967. Finnigan’s rendition, much like the original, is a catchy mid-tempo track that makes your neck muscles do the wop. The track was recorded entirely to tape with sessions taking place in the Bay Area, Ohio & Chicago, resulting in this dynamic serving of soul music. Featuring a cavalcade of top musicians and names you trust, the rhythm section and horns are locked tight and provide the perfect bedrock for Kelly and Renaldo’s masterful singing. The two voices blend harmoniously, rekindling the classic sound of dual male soul serenading à la Sam & Dave, Eddie & Ernie and Bob & Gene. This song alone makes for a record that is sure to be every DJ and soul lover's friend!

When you flip it over, you are greeted with the B-side 'Let Me Count The Reasons' from Kelly's critically acclaimed new LP 'A Lover Was Born.' Written by Finnigan and long time collaborator Max Ramey, it is sweeter in tempo and full of love and heart. The track is a masterclass in the romantic sounds inspired by records from Detroit to Philadelphia and every soul city in between.
