Slip Away - Clarence Carter

"Slip Away", arranged and produced by Rick Hall, was recorded at FAME Studios in a mid-1967 recording session whose players, besides vocalist Clarence Carter himself on guitar, included visiting American Sound Studio (Memphis) session regulars Spooner Oldham on keyboards and Tommy Cogbill whose bass riffs on the track would become iconic in the canon of Southern soul: other session players included drummer Roger Hawkins and - in one of his first session jobs - Duane Allman on slide guitar. Despite the track's credentials, Rick Hall decided against releasing "Slip Away": that the track would eventually serve as the B-side of the April 1968 single release "Funky Fever" was according to Carter his own suggestion, made in the hopes that "Slip Away" would prove to be a "flip hit".
