I can't remember this being mentioned before

Top deck’s an unissued mover cut in 1962 at the Fortune Records studios while the flip is Melvin’s rare 1961 Jack Pot label debut! These Motor City dance floor monsters will stun fans of Nathaniel Mayer and Gino Washington!"

What a great record! It has the same vibe as Spyder Turner's Ride in My 225, Eddie Kirkland's The Grunt, and Nathaniel Mayer's I Want Love and Affection. I've never heard any records from any where else sound like that elite group of Fortune records.
