 Two classic sides from the Michigan soul singer with a stash of soul goodies in his repertoire.
 The original pressing of ‘What Good Am I Without You’ from 1967 on Jacklyn Records goes for just over £200 and one listen explains why.
 Featuring an emotional, heart-wrenching vocal soaked with flying strings over an impulsive rhythm, it’s a lovelorn anthem; an emotional rollercoaster.
 Backed with ‘That Certain Little Something’ from the Groovy label 12 months earlier.
 A funky guitar-led scorcher with a bluesy brass break and a spin and drop chorus aided by a rampaging drummer.
 Two must-have sides from Fletcher, a child prodigy, who found success in Chicago in the mid- 1960s which led to shows with Stevie Wonder and BB King, among others.
