Nick Ashford- California Soul

Back


Nick Ashford's version of "California soul" on a Verve DJ promo. I'm not certain if his version came first, but Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell tackle this on their last LP "Easy"...a great single

Marvin & Tammi's version is more soulful than marlena's...

Listen Marlena Shaw-her version is the best!

I think the Messengers version predates the 5th Demenntions version and Tammi and Marvin's version as well, but definitely Motown.

Either way it was Motown. Nicholas Ashford was a writer for Motown at the time. Him and his wife wrote this song. If you listen closely you can hear James Jamerson on the bass and he was the Motown sound.
