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.

Dynamo premiered in January 1967 with Tommy Hunt’s return to the charts... The Biggest Man (D-101), a Billboard #29 R&amp;B smash. The flip-side was Hunt’s original version of Never Love A Robin popularised in the U.K. by Barbara and Brenda and featured here, side two, track two. The song was co-written by Dixon and his then wife Inez Foxx. Inez and Charlie Foxx’s Dynamo debut was Tightrope released in March 1967 and featured here, side two, track three. The disc also scored a release in the U.K. on ‘Stateside’ and was to become a seminal track in the development of the Northern Soul scene played at the Mojo, the Wheel and the Torch. Ironically, the rarest record in our set has nothing to do with Luther Dixon at all. He didn’t write, arrange or produce it (credit must go to Richard “Popcorn” Wylie), but we are eternally grateful to him for releasing it in November 1967 (D-111). It is, of course, Stanley Mitchell’s Detroit anthem Get It Baby championed by DJ Richard Searling in the early days of the legendary Wigan Casino. At the time of its release Quit Twistin’ My Arm was the plug-side and here Outta Sight feature both songs, in the correct order, opening proceedings for both sides of our album. Perhaps equally as rare is the seldom seen or heard There Will Never Be Another You For Me (D-106) by Kenny Ballard and his ‘fabulous’ Soul Brothers, side one, track seven. This sublime crossover gem was produced by George Tobin who was also responsible for Ballard’s earlier Roulette disc I’m Losing You.
