Capitol Grooves From The Crates

Martijn Soetens
I went down to the vaults of Capitol and affiliated labels, like Blue Note, EMI, Stateside, Liberty, Virgin and United Artists to compile another episode of Grooves From The Crates!

Evie Sands began recording as a teenager in the mid-1960s, but it took a few years before she had a hit record. Her first single was stolen and released earlier by someone else, her second single became a hit for the Hollies and her third release did not chart because her record company went bankrupt. In 1969 Sands finally scored with the A&M single Any Way That You Want Me, a Chip Taylor composition, previously recorded by both the American Breed and the Troggs 3 years earlier. The song reached #53 on the Billboard Hot 100. I Love Makin’ Love To You is from her 1975 LP Estate Of Mind, produced by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter and one of the highlights of her career.
