This CD reissue of the Esquires' classic debut LP will have you wondering why big-time success eluded the harmony-laden foursome. The often-changing lineup consisted at this point of Gilbert Moorer, Alvis Moorer, Shawn Taylor, and Millard Edwards. Edwards, who sang with the Sheppards, was from Chicago, while the other three were Milwaukee natives. Everyone is familiar with "Get On Up," a monster, and its knock-off follow-up, "And Get Away"; however, not many know of the excellent slow and mid-tempo numbers that B-sided their faster A-sides.

Although three quarters of the original members were from Milwaukee, 1960s soul, R&B, and doo wop quartet the Esquires really made their mark on the Chicago soul scene, and the group is almost criminally under-known these days, save for their 1967 hit "Get on U. There was a lot more to this fine vocal group than just that hit, though, as this wonderful collection shows, gathering the Esquires' key singles and adding essential tracks from their album Get on Up to make a fine introduction to their catalog.
