About the artist
Eugene "Tiny" Watkins was a deep soul singer; on his Aquarian 45 he described himself as "a native of Mobile, Alabama", though other accounts call him originally Mississippian. "A Soldier's Sad Story" b/w "Love Flows Like A River" (Excello 2287, 1967), his first Excello release, carries an Aaron Varnell arrangement; the flip remakes a song from his 1958 Sandy 45. The A-side titles Ace's compilation "A Soldier's Sad Story: Vietnam Through The Eyes Of Black America". [Source: Sir Shambling's; Discogs]
