In a modest studio in a shoe-shine parlour on Church Street in Norfolk, Virginia, Noah Biggs built a world. Crook by day, gambler by night, Biggs, who always wore a suit, took a bevy of unknown singers and combined his connections and charisma to create timeless soul music in a time of upheaval. Gathered here are 25 of Shiptown's most compelling sides, recorded between 1965 and 1977, including Ida Sands, The Soul Duo, The Anglos, Dream Team, The Grooms, Positive Sounds, Barbara Stant, Wilson Williams, Art Ensley and yes, Flip Flop Stevens.
