V/A- All Tore Up: Unrequited Love, Tormented Romance, Tragedy & Tearjerkers.... 1955-1968 (Crypt, TU-567)

"A great "concept" album containing a fine slew of emotional (ranging to psychological breakdown!) 50s R&B ballads and mid-60s southern soul love songs, perfect for miserable nights alone missing your loved one…(Crypt Records)

A killer set of of soulful heartbreak ballads and gutbucket r&b stompers from those cats at Crypt Records. All Tore Up was released back in 2000, and now is fairly tough to come by. This is good stuff!

This is even better than it sounds like it would be. The guitar on "No Coming Back" is so nasty and right... as is the threat of violence on "2 Time Loser." I have been loving this. Thanks, fellow.

This is a pretty amazing album. Willie Walker's "Warm To Cool To Cold" is about the only sing that brings this grown man close to tears :-) Great, great, great....
