Soul Music The Way It Should Be.......2006-05-08

Now THIS is music. Nothing that's out on the radio today can compete with what they call "old school" music. Listen to "Band Of Gold" by Freda Payne, "Love On A Two-Way Street" by The Moments, or "The Bells" by The Originals and you'll see what I mean. "The Bells" is the prettiest song on this CD; the harmonies are breathtaking, the lyrics will break your heart, and the instrument arrangement, with the harp and bells, is divine.
This CD should be required listening for any artist or group that's even contemplating getting into the music biz.

Captures a very good year for Soul Music.......2001-08-10

This CD concentrates on some sweet soul hits from 1970, a very good year for music that was kind to the ear. Here we have "Ooh Child" by the 5 Stairsteps,. a beautiful, warm tune that is my personal favorite song of all time. We also have "Love Land" by Charles Wright, who wasn't one o my favoirte artists but this was a damn good tune. The enclosed version of 'Love on a 2 Way Street" by the moments is the short version, not the one with the classic ending "Bye Bye baby, bye bye." And there;s "Love Won;t Let me Be Lonely" by the Freinds of Distinction, with it's tempo changes that flow quite well. All in all, a first class collection from a very good year for this music.
