He's also a pretty fine singer, having recorded for the Chess, Atlantic, Polydor, and \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eSSS\u003c\/span\u003e labels, and he had a nice string of his own hits in the 1970s. His 1975 Atlantic album The Show Must Go On has long been regarded by Southern soul aficionados as one of the best of the genre. Sounding a bit like a deeper-voiced Curtis Mayfield (in both style and theme), Dees sings with assurance, wisdom, passion, and a whole lot of soul here. Songs like \"Child of the Streets\", \"Troubled Child,\" \u0026amp; \"What's It Gonna Be,\" share Mayfield's commitment to social commentary, and Dees knows his way around a love song, too. It's absolutely essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eCREDITS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePersonnel: Sam Dees, vocals \u0026amp; keyboards \/ Glen Woods, guitars \/ David Camon, bass \/ Sherman \"Fats\" Carson, Drums\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKLIST \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChild Of The Streets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Show Must Go On\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCome Back Strong\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust Out Of My Reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClaim Jumpin’\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTroubled Child\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat’s It Gonna Be\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorn Out Broken Heart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood Guys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSo Tied Up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eLISTEN\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAvailable on Desktop \u0026amp; Mobile\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sam Dees","offers":[{"title":"LP \/ Black","offer_id":43186550898879,"sku":"PPANSD18134-BK","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/6947\/3471\/files\/tmp_2F1511825034555-4rmnwkq08co-c13830a12b0f6b1ea57c5b6df87a0e5f_2F5060149622216.jpg?v=1713909885"}],"url":"https:\/\/helixsounds.com\/collections\/artist-sam-dees.oembed","provider":"Helix Sounds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
