CD ReviewsIT'S EARLY SOUL CHRIS FITZ | Australia | 12/10/2003 (4 out of 5 stars) "Marv Johnson has a sweet voice and this CD is a delight to hear. Why he did not have more hits is beyond me. The first 12 tracks are a mix of America popular songs and R'n'B. The stanadards are sung well and quite straight and you get to hear how good his voice was. The others are good too, the big smash,'You got what it takes' and the beautiful ballad 'Don't leave me'(where he sounds as good as Sam Cook). Tracks 13-27 move away from the standards and are good old R'n'B from the late 50's. It's interesting to note that Marv was one of the original Motown stars and many of the tracks have an early Motown feel to them. In short a fantastic CD for someone that loves early soul and appreciates a beautiful young voice singing it."
