John Edwards' early releases, mainly at Aware Records under the tutelage of Floyd Smith, thrilled soul lovers with his consummate vocals and impressed the multi-million selling Spinners enough to hire him to replace Philippe Wynne. Edwards' first Aware hits, such as 'Stop This Merry-Go-Round' and 'Careful Man', led to his eponymous debut LP and the recording of a second album, but Aware collapsed, putting paid to that proposed disc. When the master tapes were uncovered in the '90s, the tracks were issued on the 1996 Kent CD 'Careful Man' and handful of singles were issued to great acclaim. At last, we have collected the tracks on vinyl and the beauty of 'Tin Man', 'How Can I Go On Without You' and 'Cold Hearted Woman' can be enjoyed as they were originally intended. Modern soul fans will be able to sleep easily again.
