Various - Sweet Soul Music: 30 Scorching Classics From 1967

1-CD-Album DigiPac with 96-page booklet. 30 tracks, playing time: 81:51 minutes.

Here comes the eagerly anticipated sequel to our first five volumes of 'Sweet Soul Music,' as well as the highly acclaimed, award-winning R&B series 'Blowin' The Fuse.' This is ehe sound that influences musicians who weren't even born when it came out, like Amy Winehouse and Joss Stone! All the greatest and most influential soul hits of the 1960s, including some surprisingly hard-to-find selections! Every song is the original version. The ultimate soul collection spread across ten individual CDs! The soul-searing soundtrack to the 1960s! Massive, beautifully illustrated booklets with detailed notes, incredible vintage photos, and ephemera.

Over the course of ten spectacular years, R&B morphed into soul music with a side order of funk, and became the soundtrack to a social revolution. The riveting story of that incredible decade is told in full for the first time on Bear Family's 'Sweet Soul Music' series. Some record companies have compiled anthologies from their own vaults, but Bear Family has gone the extra mile... and then some, licensing classic recordings from virtually every record label at the epicenter of '60s soul to compile the greatest hits with the finest sound quality.

The second five volumes, available now, cover the years 1966-1970. Though gospel remained the bedrock of soul music, the sound was transforming fast, thanks to Motown, Stax, the regional innovations of Chicago, New Orleans, and Muscle Shoals, and the funk revolution, led by James Brown and Sly & The Family Stone. The civil rights and antiwar movements were now rolling full speed ahead, and the messages at the heart of the music were often as powerful and invigorating as the grooves themselves. The second half of this incredible story is just as fascinating as the first. Bill Dahl's track-by-track commentary provides extensive biographical info on every artist on every disc.

The prelude to this series, 'Blowin' The Fuse,' definitively covered the history of R&B from 1945- 1960, garnering awards and general acclaim. The first five volumes of 'Sweet Soul Music' earned the same enthusiastic response. Now here come the other five jam-packed volumes of 'Sweet Soul Music,' compiled with love by Dave 'Daddy Cool' Booth. -- Hits' Too many to mention! Consult the track listing!

"Various - Sweet Soul Music"

Sweet Soul Music

Es war eine turbulente Ära in der afroamerikanischen Musik und Kultur. Die rasante Entwicklung der Musik spiegelte das sich verändernde gesellschaftliche Klima wider. Alles schien im Spiel zu sein. Nichts war so, wie es war. Durch sie alle, schien es, als ob jede Woche ergab eine weitere Partie von Must-Have-Singles.

Diese Serie knüpft an die preisgekrönte Serie'Blowin' The Fuse' an, die von 1945 bis 1960 R&B dokumentierte. Ausgehend von der Geschichte von 1961 bis 1970 werden wir Zeuge des Wandels von R&B zu dem, was als Soul Music bekannt wurde.

Jede Scheibe ist in grober chronologischer Reihenfolge, basierend auf dem Veröffentlichungsdatum und nicht auf dem Chart-Peak. Ich habe versucht, mich an eine Politik von einem Song pro Künstler und Jahr zu halten. Außerdem habe ich, wann immer eine gute Stereoanlage zur Verfügung stand, diese dem Mono vorgezogen, obwohl ich mir sehr wohl bewusst bin, dass die Original-Singles in Mono waren. Leider waren einige Künstler, vor allem Sam Cooke und Ray Charles, aufgrund von Lizenzbeschränkungen nicht verfügbar, aber es gibt einen solchen Reichtum an großartiger Musik aus diesem Jahrzehnt, dass man sie kaum vermisst. Ich habe auch versucht sicherzustellen, dass einige wichtige R&B-Labels, wie Motown und Atlantic, nicht überrepräsentiert sind. Es fehlen also ein paar Ihrer Lieblingssongs aus dieser Zeit.... aber nur wenige.

Noch einmal möchte ich meine Schuld an den Dateien der Magazine'Billboard' und'Cashbox' sowie Joel Whitburns Top R&B Singles anerkennen, ohne die solche Compilations fast unmöglich wären.

Jetzt lasst uns anfangen!
