Soul in Harmony: Vocal Groups 67 - 77 / Various

After a brief break, Kent's strong-selling group soul series returns with a third volume that's every bit as harmonious as the first two. The focus is firmly on the sweet and the deep, and the majority of the tracks (including five previously unissued) are making their CD debut here.

Centers of harmonic excellence all across the USA are represented in our track listing: from NYC to Memphis and on to Detroit and San Francisco. One title was recorded in Bangkok; now that's a story! Some featured artists are more familiar than others but all are outstanding in their field.

The better-known groups include the Mad Lads, Dramatics, Pretenders and the Festivals. The Four Sonics charted with You Don't Have To Say You Love Me as did the Mad Lads with Don't Have To Shop Around although in this instance we have used a previously unreleased version. The rarities include records from the Inconquerables, Love Generation and Salt & Pepper and would set you back thousands of pounds for the original vinyl.

Group soul is really popular, as proven by the success of our previous excursions into this territory (CDKEND 252 and CDKEND 219). We're confident that this one will also do solid business!
