On If Walls Could Talk, Little Milton conti-
nues to fuse blues with soul -- if anything,
the album leans toward soul more than
blues. Supported by a band with a thick,
wailing horn section, Little Milton sings
and plays with power. Though there a
couple of wonderful solos, the focus of
the record is on the songs, which all
sound terrific, thanks to Milton's com-
passionate vocals.
Masterpiece: 4,5 stars out of 5
2001 reissue of Little Milton's fourth LP
for Chess originally released in 1970. If
Walls Could Talk features a selection of
brassy versions of old R&B hits and ori-
ginal Soul songs, some featuring Donny
Hathaway in the studio band. Little Milton
Campbell first made impact when he hit
#1 on the R&B chart in 1965 with the roa-
ring Soul-Blues of 'We're Gonna Make It'
on Chess Records. In a career lasting 50
years, this son of a Mississippi sharecrop-
per also recorded for Sun and Bobbin in
the '50s, moving to Stax in the '70s with
a Watt Stax movie appearance and more
hit singles, then a wealth of LPs on Mala-
co in the '80s and '90s and finally on Te-
larc shortly before his sad death in 2005.
