A spurned, lovelorn soulster with a gravel to foil Sam cooke’s smooth croon, James Carr spanned the soul/blues divide with wild, unrelenting abandon. Belting with every bit the energy of Otis Redding, and the poise of Wilson Pickett, You Got My Mind Messed Up is an overlooked powerhouse, an era when soul music came into its own. Contemplative, powerful, and ground-shakingly good.
