Various - Sweet Soul Music: Sweet Soul Music 31 Scorching Classics 1964 (CD)

1-CD-Album Digipak (6-plated) with 87-page booklet, 31 tracks. Playing time approx. 81 mns.

Sweet Soul Music – 31 Scorching Classics From 1964 (BCD 16870 AS) isn’t a “compilation.” It’s a hard-cut snapshot of 1964—31 singles that defined what soul could be when it was still inventing itself in real time: Chicago grit, Detroit precision, Muscle Shoals heat, New Orleans heartbreak.

You get The Tams with What Kind Of Fool—a gritty lead riding a swirling groove. Major Lance turns Curtis Mayfield’s magic into pure radio gold with Um, Um, Um…. Betty Everett delivers Shoop Shoop with that gospel-trained punch and pop sparkle. Bobby “Blue” Bland proves sophistication can still hit like a hammer. Then comes the Motown spine—Temptations, Mary Wells, Supremes, Four Tops—records that don’t “sound classic,” they built the definition of classic.

The difference is the Bear Family treatment: this comes in a 6-panel digipak with an 87-page booklet that actually explains the songs—track-by-track context, history, credits, the why behind the sound.

Runtime: about 81 minutes—a full hit, not a teaser. [Bear Family Records, Various – Sweet Soul Music: 31 Scorching Classics From 1964,

Once you miss a Bear Family volume, you don’t “just grab it later.” You hunt. Or you pay. If you want 1964 in your hands, not in an algorithm—this is it.

Sweet Soul Music

It was a tumultuous era in African American music and culture. The rapid evolution of the music mirrored the changing social climate. Everything seemed to be in play. Nothing was as it was. Through it all, it seemed as if every week yielded another batch of must-have singles.

This series follows on from Bear Family's award-winning 'Blowin' The Fuse' series that documented R&B from 1945 until 1960. Taking the story from 1961 until 1970, we'll witness the change from R&B to what became known as Soul Music.

Every disc is in rough chronological order based on release dates rather than chart peak. I attempted to adhere to a policy of one song per artist per year. Also, whenever good stereo was available, I used that in preference to mono, although I'm well aware that the original singles were in mono. Unfortunately, licensing restrictions meant that several artists, notably Sam Cooke and Ray Charles, were unavailable to us, but there is such a wealth of great music from this decade that they are hardly missed. I also tried to ensure that several important R&B labels, such as Motown and Atlantic, were not over-represented. So a few of your favorite songs from this era might be missing… but only a few.

Once again, I'd like to acknowledge my debt to the files of 'Billboard' and 'Cashbox'magazines, as well as Joel Whitburn's Top R&B Singles.Without them, compilations like these would be almost impossible.

Now let's get down with it!
