And finally, Warner Bros. Records will present a series of stunning soul 45s from the famed Loma label. With each title highly collectible upon its original pressing, these reissues are intended to enable fans to enjoy this incredible music the way it was meant to be heard—at 45 rpm.
Artists in this series include The Marvellos, The Soul Shakers, Carl Thomas, and others.
That's a surprise to me. I'd heard some time ago that WB were looking to put out a full Loma anthology on CD, but didn't know about the reissue 45s. Seems WB thinks there's a a lot of life in the 45 format yet, especially for back catalogue stuff!
