E. J. & The Echoes – The Complete Diamond Jim Recordings
E. J. & The Echoes – The Complete Diamond Jim Recordings collects the rare and long-sought recordings of a Michigan soul group whose legacy has grown steadily among Northern Soul collectors and vintage R&B fans.
Formed in the early 1960s by Everett J. “EJ” Gronda, E. J. & The Echoes built a powerful reputation across Michigan with a harmony-rich sound shaped by classic soul, R&B, beat music and the energy of the Detroit scene. Their Diamond Jim Records singles, originally released between 1964 and 1967, have become prized pieces of American soul history.
This deluxe vinyl LP brings those rare recordings together, offering the complete Diamond Jim output on LP for the first time. Featuring detailed liner notes, unseen photographs and a download code, it is an essential archival release for fans of Northern Soul, 60s soul, rare groove and Tramp Records’ carefully curated reissue catalogue.
