Rudy Lambert - Love / Let's Stick Together

Year Released: 1968 (Club 7 reissue)
Genre: Soul / Northern Soul

Description:
A rare and powerful double-sider from Rudy Lambert, “Love” and “Let’s Stick Together” showcase Lambert’s dynamic vocal presence over tight, Motown-inspired arrangements. Released on the Carnival label, both tracks blend driving rhythms, orchestral strings, and rich backing vocals, offering a perfect snapshot of late-’60s Northern Soul energy.

“Love” delivers an uptempo, horn-led groove built for the dancefloor, while “Let’s Stick Together” slows the tempo slightly for a more romantic, persuasive plea — both unified by Lambert’s expressive delivery and the impeccable session work typical of Carnival’s productions.

Lambert’s recordings have found a second life through Northern Soul collectors and DJs, becoming highly sought-after 45s. The energy and arrangements foreshadowed the Philadelphia soul sound that would dominate the early ’70s.

This single stands as a hidden gem of late-’60s soul craftsmanship — emotionally rich, musically polished, and a favorite among collectors chasing the deeper corners of the Carnival Records catalogue.
