Charly Records, also known as Charly, is a British label specializing in reissuing old music from iconic catalogs such as Sun Record Company and Chess. Founded by Jean-Luc Young in France in 1974 and later moved to England in 1975, Charly Records has become a renowned name in the industry.

Throughout its history, Charly Records established various associated companies for licensing and rights, including Charly Records International APS based in Denmark and Charly Holdings Inc. registered in the USA. In the 1990s, they collaborated with Movieplay Portuguesa for CD releases, resulting in the presence of SPA rights society on those releases.

Despite being dissolved in 2001, Charly Records underwent new management and became part of the Snapper Music group. Today, it continues to distribute its reissued music through their extensive network.

And it's Smooth Sailing all the way with the seldom heard, falsetto rendering of the Temptations 1971 Detroit classic that bears our album title and represents our aspiration to blend the obscure with the creme of American black music royalty. Here we celebrate the overlooked Freddy Briggs (aka Coldwate Stone), the former Chicago Gangsters (the Harmonics), the former Metros (Liberation), the unknown Mary Mundy, and the rarest of the rare offering by Chuck Ray. By contrast, we also showcase largely ignored recordings by the likes of Prince with 94 East, chart-topping Al Wilson (infamously quoted by Donald Trump on his ill-fated campaign trail), Grammy Award winner Al Jarreeau, America's TV cop Christie Love aka Teresa Graves, and multi-chart-busters the Ohio Players. An exclusive haul of Seventies Soul for the collector, enthusiast and lover of uptempo, feel-good grooves...
