A WELCOME RETURN TO THE ACE CATALOGUE THIS NOVEMBER * Dan Penn, hailed by Peter Guralnick as the "secret hero" of 60s R&B, wrote 'I'm Your Puppet' and 'Do Right Woman' * Reveals Penn as a performer in his own right, drawn from three formative years as a FAME Studios staff writer in Muscle Shoals * Collects relaxed late-night session recordings, cut alongside his day job writing for others * Several future soul standards appear here in their original versions - often taped hours after being written * 1964-65 sessions with the celebrated FAME house band, with liner notes from Spooner Oldham, Rick Hall and other collaborators
