CD Reviews

A fantastic collection

Robert Bainbridge | UK | 01/19/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is definitely on for the collection - a truly superb work of art from all the performers and production team. I thoroughly recommend it!!"

A piece of history

Sierra Hurtt-Akselrod | Philly, USA | 07/01/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Celebrating two of America's most influential musical cities, this CD set has brought together some of Motown and Philly Soul's musical heavyweights. The result is a glorious 2+ hours of sonic surprises. The Funkmaster, George Clinton, crooning through "Love Won't Let Me Wait"; Bunny Sigler and Jean Carne's sizzling rendition of the Rick James Classic "Fire and Desire"; Freda Payne's melting version of 'Betcha By Golly Wow; or Phil Hurtt's big band rendition of 'The Girl's Alright' - with the Funk Brothers and/or MFSB on all 30 tracks. Unbelievable stuff! 'Soulful Tale' proves that these artists are still in the prime of their careers. It's a shame that we don't hear music like this on the radio anymore. The world is missing something by not embracing this piece of American pop history."
