Everybody Plays the Fool: The Best of the Main Ingredient
(2005)

by
The Main Ingredient
The Main Ingredient were one of the best smooth soul groups of the early '70s, but they've never been given much respect in terms of CD retrospectives. They were given two comps in 1990 -- Collectables' good but cheap Golden Classics and RCA's lengthier All Time Greatest Hits, which had more tunes but bad sound -- and in 1996 RCA issued Quiet ...

Reggae Anthology: Penthouse Classics

Various Artists
Just as Coxsone Dodd's Studio One, was one of the most powerful forces in reggae in the 1960s and 1970s, the Penthouse label dominated dancehall reggae in 1980s and beyond. It seems just about every major dancehall artist has spent at least some time at Penthouse Studio in Kingston, Jamaica. Reggae Anthology: Penthouse Classics is an attempt to ...

Blue Magic
In the '70s, Philadelphia's most famous soul empire was Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff's Philadelphia International Records, home of the O'Jays, the Intruders, Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, the Three Degrees, and Billy Paul. But the Thom Bell/Linda Creed school of Philly soul was also huge thanks to heavyweights like the Stylistics and the Delfonics ...

The Magic of the Blue: Greatest Hits
(1986)
more music like this
by
Blue Magic
In a perfect world, all of Blue Magic's '70s LPs would have been reissued on CD in the late '80s or '90s. But that didn't happen; when the 21st century arrived, most of the Philadelphia vocal group's '70s albums were out of print. However, various best-of packages were available on CD. The most comprehensive is The Best of Blue Magic: Soulful ...

Classic 70s Soul, Vol. 1 [BMG]

by
Various Artists
Like its Classic 60s Soul, Vol. 1 companion piece, BMG Special Products' Classic 70s Soul, Vol. 1 is a fairly entertaining sampler of familiar hits and cult singles from the decade. Although the song selection appears random, the ten-track compilation does have a number of good moments, such as the Spinners' "Could It Be I'm Falling in Love," ...

Like the first, the second volume of The Right Stuff's '70s Soul Jam features performances from the Stylistics, the Dramatics, the Chi-Lites, and Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, and it also adds a pair of selections from the Main Ingredient's Cuba Gooding. Again, the title is misleading since the material captured here was performed in 2001 -- ...

This 2000 greatest hits set is by no means a definitive compilation. Greatest Hits: The Encore Collection has a scant ten tracks and runs 35-plus minutes. This set, like the previous ones, collects work from two distinctly different versions of the group. With first lead singer Donald McPherson, the group fashioned sad ballads due to McPherson's ...

The Main Ingredient
True to its title, this CD includes 22 tracks taken from singles the Main Ingredient released between 1967 and 1975 (including three pre-1969 cuts that they released when they were called the Insiders). Whether or not it's the intention, it ends up being a best-of CD, the Main Ingredient certainly being a singles-oriented soul group. While the ...

With two Stevie Wonder covers and a Curtis Mayfield cover taking up a third of the ten tracks on this 2004 reissue of BMG's 2000 Greatest Hits compilation, one could hardly call this anything labeled definitive or greatest hits. Spanning the Main Ingredient's most prolific years during the early '70s, their most well-known songs are here, ...

Horace Andy possesses one of the truly immortal voices of reggae -- a reedy tenor that cuts effortlessly through the mix and has influenced countless other reggae singers. He began recording as a teenager, and his voice and delivery have actually changed little since those early days, when he was cranking out hits for producer Clement "Coxsone" ...

Miki Howard
Another album heavy on covers from Miki Howard, Pillow Talk trails the singer's previous release, Three Wishes, by five years. Five years is a long gap -- even when considering appearances on albums by Norman Brown and Gerald LeVert -- and even some of her most devout fans might feel a little shortchanged by the shortage of original material here. ...

Thump's many variations on their Old School series haven't been immune to overlap, and the Love Songs volumes have hardly been an exception. Even so, there's enough variation throughout to keep them from being nothing more than recycled matter -- and quite a lot of ground is covered, with three decades of R&B taken into consideration. Thump ...

While nothing soared as high as "Everybody Plays a Fool" from the Bitter Sweet LP, Euphrates River is tighter and has more zap than the previous year's beautiful but hitless Afrodisiac. They nailed Seals & Croft's "Summer Breeze" -- the New Yorkers almost surpassed the Isley Brothers' soulful version. Cuba Gooding sings the upbeat and funky ...
