Price: $46.99
Customer Review:
JULY 2008 REVIEW: I purchased this particular box set a little over a month ago, and I must say: it does NOT disappoint. You really can't complain; although the box set was released several years ago, and therefore the early 1990's CD mastering here isn't necessarily as strong and powerful sounding... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

by Bettye LaVette
Price: $10.99
Customer Review:
I had never heard of Bettye LaVette until I happened to come across this CD at a local library. I immediately loved it, which is uncommon for me. It was liking finding a rough hewn hidden gem. As other reviewers have noted, all of the songs on "I've Got My Own Hell To Raise" are covers of songs... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

by Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings
Price: $13.99
Customer Review:
New singer, climbed her way to the national scene late in life. She was working until recently as a security guard or something, but man has she got talent. The fact that she wasn't discovered until recently is an indictment against the record industry and their disproportionate interest in the... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

| 7. |  | The Anthology 1961-1977
by Curtis Mayfield
Price: $28.99
Customer Review:
Curtis Mayfield was perhaps one of the most underappreciated artists of the 1960's, and The Anthology: 1961-77 illustrates all that there was to admire about this musical visionary. Disc 1 begins with the doowop-influenced tracks "Gypsy Woman" and "Never Let Me Go." The Impressions' harmonies are... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

by Various Artists
Price: $89.99
Customer Review:
More than 30 years after Stax-Volt last published, at last I have my hands on all three volumes of 'The Complete...'. The individual volumes have some great music, not all of which found its way around the world. Hearing great music for the first time long after the label's demise is a mixture of... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

by Billy Stewart
Price: $8.49
Customer Review:
I first heard Billy Stewart's rendition of "Summertime" in 1968. I have been a fan ever since. The LP I purchased then is now warped and full of scratches. This CD has allowed me to recapture Billy's magic with that and other songs. Most of the songs here have held up well. If you like classic... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

by Various Artists
Price: $59.98
Customer Review:
A very good collection of some of the biggest hits of soul. If you are starting from a limited stash, this is a good boost for your collection. However, the depth of catalog is limited mostly by the fact there are only 4 CDs. A 10 CD box set or more would really be required to capture the biggest... more info | 4.0 / 5.0
