Ike Noble & The Uptights - Look A Little Higher
Look A Little Higher gathers a powerful set of soul and funk recordings from Ike Noble & The Uptights, a group formed in Forrest City, Arkansas in the late 1960s. The band developed from school performances into a working regional act, recording material for labels including Action and Alley while building a reputation around Arkansas and Memphis.
This collection draws on that fertile period, combining issued sides with previously unreleased material. Raw vocals, tight grooves and the band’s blend of Southern soul and funk make it an essential archival document of a group whose music deserved far wider recognition.
