Description:
"Diggin` Gold", as compiler Alec Palao states in the opening paragraph of his extensive liner notes, focuses on the many rare blues and R&B entries in the Galaxy discography 1963-65 that came from one particular Los Angeles production house, that of producer Cliff Goldsmith and arranger Ray Shanklin, that have escaped reissue. With the help of Fantasy vault-keeper Stuart Kremsky, Alec Palao has mine-swept its deep recesses.
