Go beyond the Motown hits to get the whole story on soul music. This comprehensive collection of 150 songs takes you from the late '50s through the early '70s of soul. Jackie Wilson to Marvin Gaye, and everyone between.

"This CD collection was purchased for my 17yr old daughter for christmas. She received the set before the christmas holidays. Daughter and I are well pleased with this collection. It's very good. I can't even believe that a 17yr old would request these oldies but she loves it and plays the CD's on a daily basis. Great CD set that will be played over and over."
TimeLife Soul Story is weighted toward older, more R&B songs

"This is not a bad collection, and you will no doubt find songs on it that you like but had completely forgotten about, and you will discover new favorites, BUT... be forewarned that, interspersed with the best soul songs from the seventies (which seems to me to be when the best of the best were recorded), there are many, many lesser-known tunes from the fifties and sixties that might be better described as R&B or blues.
I don't mind having some of these older songs, but I would have preferred more of the cream of the crop."
Great!

"I have these (and the others that came after in the series) and I really love them. For once the compilers have dug a little deeper and given us a decent number of rare gems instead of the same old hits we always see on these compilations. (Although there are a lot of the usual hits as well) I know they have to sell these things with the hits (and I love them too)but it's great to see something a little different here. Bravo Time Life!"
