2007 release. The first, only, complete and definitive anthology of
Nathaniel Mayer
's music, with the full story on
Michael Hurtt
's massive liner notes. On this CD you can find all the singles Nathaniel released in the 1960s, plus a rare single from 1980. It's all here: from the thumping primitivism of
John Lee Hooker
's trance-inducing guitar to
Iggy and the Stooges
' desperate wail from the gutter, Detroit, Michigan has always been a city of musical extremes. Dead center between "Boogie Chillun" and "TV Eye" lies the musical netherworld of Fortune Records, the city's only label with any staying power prior to Motown. Fortune was an extreme among extremes, as was its most successful artist, Nathaniel "Nay Dog" Mayer. Crazy, funny, irreverent and stunningly talented, Mayer scored the label its biggest hit with his 1962 blockbuster "Village Of Love." His six years with the label, beginning with 1961's impassioned "My Last Dance With You" and ending with 1966's proto-funk "(I Want) Love And Affection (Not The House of Correction)," resulted in twenty-one slices of musical brilliance that were unique even in the fertile musical breeding ground from whence they came. Here were records that demanded immediate involvement and total immersion; music so frenetic that it was impossible to take sitting down. A Mayer disc was an instant party. The fact that he recorded for Fortune --an iconic independent label petrified to license their records for wider distribution-- certainly kept him from becoming a household name. Then again, Mayer's over-the-top approach might have been lost on another imprint. Like
Andre Williams
before him, in Fortune Mayer found a place where he could wreak his sonic havoc, unrestrained. Nay Dog's hard-edged, straightforward music has influenced many of today's up-and-coming garage, punk and soul acts. "Village Of Love" was covered by
The Detroit Cobras
, "Leave Me Alone" was remade by
The Hard Feelings
, while
Holly Golightly
,
Eve Monsees
and
the Exiles
and
the Gibson Brothers
have all recorded "I Had A Dream." Fans and collectors still seek out Mayer's original Fortune-label 45s. He's claimed his legacy in the scope of Detroit's rich musical history. Includes a 24-page booklet with extensive notes and rare photos.
