Apollas

Absolutely Right Apollas

Digitally remastered collection from the '60s Soul trio. The Apollas were much more than the Northern Soul divas familiar from their records 'You're Absolutely Right' and 'Mr. Creator'. on a remarkably consistent five year span of singles from 1963 to 1968, this Bay Area, born gal trio indulged equally in searing balladry, gritty Gospel laced R&B, and infectious Pop, mastering them all with soulful aplomb. Absolutely Right! The Complete Tiger, Loma And Warner Brothers Recordings proves this in spades, with a track listing that covers every single release by The Apollas and adds four sides by their earlier incarnation the Lovejoys, as well as the fine 1967 solo single by lead singer Leola Jiles. There is also the bonus of four excellent unissued tracks, including Leola's heartrending masterpiece 'I've Got So Used to Loving You'. Kent Records. 2012.
