Motown's Chris Clark 'Soul Sounds' LP. V.I.P. 1967
Motown’s Chris Clark ‘Soul Sounds’ V.I.P. album, released early-1967.

MCRFB Note: Soul Sounds is the debut album by soul singer Chris Clark, released in 1967.

As a white artist on a label for which artists were predominantly black, the album made Chris Clark a cult heroine. The album (today) is considered one of Motown’s most collectable.
