Description

Dan Penn has southern soul running through his veins. Penn started out in the early sixties as band leader of various soul combos in Alabama, but he remained out of the limelight for most of his career, instead choosing to write hit songs for other artists. He has been responsible for songs including Is A Bluebird Blue by Conway Twitty, Do Right Woman Do Right Man by Aretha Franklin, The Letter by The Box Tops, Im Your Puppet by Bobby & James Purify, You Left The Water Running by Wilson Picket and Otis Redding and many more.

In 1994 Dan finally picked up the guitar and recorded these songs himself for the first time and to great effect: his renditions of Im Your Puppet and You Left The Water Running add fragile and beautiful magic to these already great songs.

This incredible collection of songs is available as a limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on gold coloured vinyl
