Irma Thomas - Chronological 1959 - 1972



Notes: the files designated "3-Track" are from a CD release that may have used the 3-track masters and tried to pass it off as "stereo". All the music is heavily compressed onto one track, Irma's vocal on the 2nd track and any overdubs are on the 3rd track. Right-center-left. They sound like shit. Reminds me a lot of the first CD release of Cream's "Fresh Cream". Horrible. There's only 5 of them and proper mono and stereo mixes are also included. 
There was a CD release of the Chess sessions that supposedly had alternate mixes of a couple songs, but I cannot hear any difference at all and disregarded them.

    1. You're welcome, Little Bill. I never tire of listening to her Minit and Imperial recordings.
