While there was certainly little to complain about on the original issue of the soundtrack for Standing in the Shadows of Motown, for those who truly sought the magic of the Funk Brothers, this deluxe edition is what they longed for all along. This two-disc collection contains the soundtrack of the Allan Slutsky/Harry Weinger film -- plus three ...

by
Vanilla Fudge
Near the Beginning is an excellent title for this self-produced Vanilla Fudge recording. The fourth of five albums recorded during 1967, 1968, and 1969, the band themselves worked to get closer to what made them very special. What made them special was their treatment of other people's material. Reworking Junior Walker's 1965 hit is interesting, ...

by
Various Artists
Instead of following Stax/Volt's pattern and delivering an exhaustive box set containing all of their singles, Motown decided to limit their singles box, Hitsville USA: The Motown Singles Collection 1959-1971, to four discs that concentrated on the hits. There are a handful of wonderful lesser-known songs here, such as the Contours' "First I Look ...

Various Artists
One of the most dominating forces in the history of popular music, the Motown imprint was more than a label, it was a juggernaut of soul music, a machine so finely honed and working with such efficiency that it wasn't uncommon for several chart topping hits to be recorded in one session. This anthology was previously issued in 2000 under the ...

Various Artists
Owner of one of the deepest catalogs in music history, Motown/Universal allows very few recordings to escape the clutches of its archive. Once they're available, however, they're repackaged in endless permutations; such it was when Motown was ten years old, and such it was as the company approached its 45th anniversary. Motown 1*s, a collection of ...

Designed as a companion piece to a PBS documentary of the '60s, Shout!

Actually, the compilers bend the rules a little bit and add several songs ...

Sam the Sham & The Pharaohs
On this 2004 two-fer, Collectables for some unknown reason switched the order of release, putting Sam the Sham & the Pharaohs' second album, 1966's Li'l Red Riding Hood, before their first album, 1965's Wooly Bully. Apart from that head scratcher, this is a great re-release by a band that is too often written off as a mere one-hit wonder (as if ...

Motown Greatest Hits

Various Artists
A three-disc set released by Universal International, Motown Greatest Hits is a wonderful collection that combines the obvious Motown hits with material a little less at the center of the label's patented 1960's sound. Rick James' "Superfreak" and Billy Preston's "With You I'm Born Again" are just two of the titles mixed in here that give this ...

Vanilla Fudge & Iron Butterfly
It's hard to get too excited about this brief ten-track sampler of sides from Vanilla Fudge and Iron Butterfly (five songs from each band), two acts that flirted with pretension in the late 1960s while occasionally catching hold of some real fire. Fudge in particular was onto something when they slowed the Supremes' "You Keep Me Hangin' On" down ...

Poncho Sanchez
Conguero Poncho Sanchez grew up on salsa and Latin jazz, but his musical influences also included large doses of Stax and Muscle Shoals R&B. So for his latest album, he decided to pay tribute to both traditions: the result is a strange but seriously fun jumble of soul, salsa, son and jazz. Gratefully, he generally avoids trying to fuse them all ...

Casey Kasem's America's Top 10 series often has a step or two on its competing retrospectives, and this 1960s volume is no different. It digs no deeper than the play list of your local oldies station, but packs in the hits and varies the styles with little filler. There are fuzzy rock classics from the Troggs, the Yardbirds, and Shadows of Knight, ...

Best of Soul 60s

Much like the other discs in Madacy's surprisingly well-packaged Best of Soul series, Best of Soul 60s balances oft-compiled songs with a handful of less familiar ones. It's also quite skimpy at 12 songs, but there's nary a weak selection in the bunch, making for a decent impulse purchase. Make no mistake -- this disc is hardly as definitive as ...

But here Clemons turned rapper over a synthesizer backing, retaining only the chorus, and even ...
