Synopsis

Album Description
In the ?70s, soul music became America?s music. From four-on-the-floor disco to the "the One" of James Brown?s funkiest grooves to the lush, nearly-make-ya-wanna-cry sounds of Philadelphia, this was the golden era. Superstars Of ?70s Soul, an upcoming PBS pledge special is the follow-up to last year?s hugely successful Rhythm, Love & Soul. It features a cavalcade of ?70s Soul stars performing their biggest hits. The accompanying Superstars Of ?70s Soul 3-CD box set features 60 of the choicest cuts from soul?s greatest decade, making for the perfect ?70s Soul set. Over 3 hours of purely righteous groove. ? Contains 60 essential tracks, featuring 41 #1 hits. ? Features lavish book, including rare, historic photos of ?70s soul artists and introduction by noted author/music critic Ernest Hardy

CD Reviews

UNBELIEVEABLE.. A MUST HAVE
03/08/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Patti Labelle, the Stylistics, Maxine Nightingale, Heatwave, on and on and on. All the classics from the 70s. But redone today. Its nothing less than spectacular & incredible. A PBS fundraiser and something that will make your CD collection complete! REMARKABLE. Music that integrates ALL people regardless of race, gender, age. THIS IS A MUST HAVE CD!"
Good, but not great.

"If you don't own any of this music, this set may not be a bad place to start. There is soul and disco with hints of funk. If you really love this sort of music and can afford a slight jump in price, Rhino's 4 CD "The Disco Box" covers that genre far better, while their 7 CD "Can You Dig It: The Seventies Soul Experience" is the superior anthology. Still, these three discs will probably be enough for fans who are not quite fanatic."

"This is my music, I've long awaited a collection such as this one. And I truly recommended this for anyone who remembers what real music was like. 70's and the 80's its all hear."
