Doris Troy to Be Rediscovered on New Compilation

January 4, 2011 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

doris troy

Interest in Doris Troy was piqued late last year, when her one LP for Apple Records was included in EMI's series of Apple reissues. Now, U.K. label Kent is offering fans another step in discovering the "Just One Look" singer on CD: I'll Do Anything: The Doris Troy Anthology 1960-1996.

This heavily-packed single-disc anthology includes an equal amount of hits and rarities, from Troy's early years as a little-known soul singer on many small labels, to her beloved time on Atlantic in the mid-'60s (with stints on Cameo-Parkway and Capitol), to her run on Apple and beyond. The set includes several tracks that have never made it to CD, including the early singles and the unreleased "Smilin'/Let Me Make Love to You" (the latter a cover of an O'Jays song). The liner notes include excerpts from a 1995 interview with Troy.

It streets in the U.K. on January 31; find it here and get the track list after the jump.

Mike Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he was a teenager. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.
