The best compilation of Fame's work, finding his R&B-jazz fusion at its most potent (and most commercially successful) on these 20 cuts from the mid-'60s. Like a Mose Allison for the British Invasion, Fame sings and plays with a soulful verve on this set of blue-eyed soul. Includes the #1 British hits "Yeh Yeh" and "Get Away," although "Ballad Of Bonnie And Clyde" is missing. ~ Richie Unterberge  http://www.allmusic.com/album/20-beat-classics-mw0000742302

Personnel: Georgie Fame (vocals, keyboards).

  1. This one was missing from my collection. Had the two hits in compilation, but didn't know much about his work back then. Let's say the cover of soul songs of that era are not great, but there is sometimes pretty fusion between R & B and jazz. Tracks with organ are welcome : I Love The Life I Live, Pink Champagne, Get On The Right Track are pretty good, but check out Moody's Mood For Love, with great organ and a deep jazzy feeling. Merci,
