"THIS DOUBLE CD SET IS A SMASH HIT. ONE LISTEN TO SONGS SUCH AS: "IT'S GOOD FOR THE SOUL", "SALSOUL RAINBOW", AND "TANGERINE" AND YOU TOO WILL BE HOOKED. THERE IS A GREAT MIX OF INSTRUMENTAL AND VOCAL TRACKS. THIS BRINGS US ALL BACK TO THE GOOD DAY'S OF WHIRLING STRINGS AND WAILING WOODWINDS. YOU MUST PURCHASE THE COMPILATION; YOUR MONEY WILL BE WELL SPENT!"

Great Phillydisco Music

"What a wonderful album! Listen to Salsoul Hustle, e.g., and you know what I mean. Great phillydisco sound! Some tracks can be named "classic". Each one is a masterpiece of its own. The album stands for the genious of the Salsoul Orchestra, its musicians and, of course, the composers. If you like the phillydisco sound and / or if you like great music, Anthology is a must for you!"

THE BRILLIANCE OF MR. VINCENT MONTANA JR.

"IT WAS 1974 WHEN I FIRST STUMBLED ON SOME OF THE HITS ON THIS GREAT TWO-DISC COMPILATION. The art of Mr. Vincent Montana, Jr., known better as the Composer, Vibraphonist, Percussionist and Artist, is well defined on this 2-cd disc. You cannot go wrong in making a purchase here. The only song that is missing to me is Charo's "Dance A Little Bit Closer". Actually, there were a few songs Charo did that I would love to see it listed on this compilation. The works of Mr. Montana, Jr. made me want to play the flutes, piccolos, xylophones, timbales. Up to today I remember my old albums of Vincent Montana Jr. He's amazing. His incredible diversity to make music (latin jazz, jazz, disco and even pop) is amazing. A true legendary he is. Much like the Maestro Barry White, Vince Montana is. **Angie** 1.27.04By the way, this is my second write-up review. I don't know what ever happened to the first one."
