Outta Sight

Outta Sight is a UK based label that was originally launched in January 2007 as a Castle Music imprint, part of Sanctuary Records Group Ltd. It is now independently controlled and has become a limited company with Glenn Gunton and Tim Brown as directors. Although the limited company appears to have dissolved in 2015, Outta Sight continues to deliver a monthly collection of rare soul on vinyl and CD.

The label's Vinyl Series includes three different categories: OSV (Outta Sight Northern Soul), RSV (Outta Sight Rhythm & Soul), and MSV (Outta Sight Modern Soul). Each category has its own release schedule, with three 7-inch singles per month for OSV and RSV, and three per quarter for MSV. Every package is carefully compiled and packaged with the utmost reverence for this important archive.

With its innovative approach and collectable series, Outta Sight has established itself as a go-to destination for soul music enthusiasts looking for unique vinyl releases. Whether you're into Northern Soul, Rhythm & Soul, or Modern Soul, Outta Sight offers an impressive selection that will satisfy any collector's cravings.

Mimms is an American R&amp;B artist and a pioneer of the early ”soul” sound. He is best known for his 1963 R&amp;B #1 hit “Cry Baby” famously covered by Janis Joplin. It was also a favourite live track of U.K. rockers Led Zeppelin. Our chosen A-side was originally released in the U.S. on United Artists in 1965 to absolutely no acclaim at the time. 

It was also released in the U.K. coupled with the hit “I’ll Take Good Care Of You” but still failed to make the charts and remains rare to this day. Our B-side, “As Long As I Have You” was only released on 45 in France and is incredibly rare (note: the U.K. release on United Artists in 1967 is a “live” version). As with the aforementioned “Cry Baby”, “As Long As I Have You” was also a favourite of Led Zeppelin and they performed a 15-minute version on their International tours.
