LP on 180-gram vinyl. Back in '70s Oakland, California, streetwise hipster William Darondo Pulliam was a funky
singer-songwriter who could also swing the sweetest soul west of Al Green. His handful of idiosyncratic 45 releases are crowned by the heartbreaking sound of his 1973 local hit 'Didn't I' on the collectable Music City label. 'Listen To My Song: The Music City Sessions' collects an unprecedented goldmine of grooves, and shows off Darondo in his streetwise prime.
