CD KENT'S CELLAR OF SOUL..3

Popis - KENT'S CELLAR OF SOUL..3:
A collection of 26 classic mid-to-late '60s soul tracks, including several R&B hits and a few which made the Pop Hot 100 too. Most were released in the UK, by groovy little labels such as Action, Spark, Soul City, Direction, B&C and Pama. The Show Stoppers' 'What Can A Man Do' is the terrific flip to the frequently re-released 'Ain't Nothing But A House Party'.
Gene Latter was born a in Wales and his great '60s soul pastiche 'Sign On The Dotted Line' was recorded in London. Cliff Noble's 'The Horse' is an instrumental with that indefinable something which made it stand out from the rest; there are probably legions of fans who never knew the songs name. Bill Moss' funky 'Sock It To Em Soul Brother' is a fine example of early rap and something of a period piece with its eulogising of OJ Simpsons football rather than courtroom skills. There's girly group soul from the Ikettes and Inspirations, funky stuff from Clarence Carter, Thelma Jones and Lowell Fulsom' and soulful balladry from Carl Henderson, the Ad Libs and Bob & Earl. The soul group roots of Northern Soul are demonstrated by the Platters, Esquires, Showmen and Volumes, while Ruby Andrews and J.J. Barnes feature the subtler productions that were the foundation stones of the '70s modern soul scene.
