BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1986

Re-Rip Remaster

Originally I posted this one back in 2010. But for those who may have missed it or if you are a new reader just discovering BTG. I decided to give this one a new rip with my newer Ortofon 30 stylus. This 12″ is also being posted in 24 bit flac for the very first time!

“Jimmy Mack” is a 1967 pop/soul single originally recorded by Martha and the Vandellas for Motown’s Gordy imprint. Written and produced by Motown’s main creative team, Holland–Dozier–Holland.

In 1986 Sheena Easton covered “Jimmy Mack” and released it as the second single from the her seventh studio album “Do You”. The song was produced by Nile Rodgers and peaked at #65 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. In the UK and Europe, the single did not chart.
