Filled with 24 tracks of soul renditions of country tunes, this import only collection I’ve been following for the last couple of months. You’ll find Betty Lavette, Etta James, Pointer Sisters, James Brown, Curtis Mayfield, and Solomon Burke throughout and those are just some big names. Beyond those, the collection rounds itself out with a plethora of slow soul.
I could have picked any track to share, but this morning Arthur Alexander’s “Love Where Life Begins” is just to good to ignore.
MP3: Arthur Alexander – “Love’s Where Life Begins”
Find MP3’s at The Hype Machine or buy stuff from Strictly Discs | eMusic
I agree, this comp comes in very handy in certain moods and situations. I love it. Ron at Strictly Discs turned me on to this and loads of other righteous funk and soul.
Brady: Did you know there’s a volume 2?
Great cover art!
haha, I didn’t until now. Sounds awesome. Funk/Soul = great summertime music.
brings back the memories. Funk/soul all night
