Edwin Starr

Edwin Starr – “Time / Running Back And Forth” (Soul Brother Records, SB 7056). A heavyweight double‑sider from Motown’s gravel‑voiced powerhouse, newly reissued on 7". “Time” is driving, orchestrated soul with urgent brass and a pocket groove that nods to the Norman Whitfield school; flip for the exuberant, string‑flecked dancer “Running Back And Forth,” the kind of joyous, punchy cut that lights up Northern‑soul floors. Soul Brother’s pressing is crisp and focused, restoring two prime examples of Starr’s commanding delivery and Detroit‑bred arrangements to jukebox rotation.
