Guest Dr Bob Jones Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Whatever the feelings are over cd's, this has got to be one special box set. 8 superb discs charting the history of the real deal. https://www.juno.co.uk/products/258689-01.htm 'Atlantic R & B Box Set 1947-1974' A real gem......

pikeys dog Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Essential for fans of R&B / Soul through the decades... got about half of them on vinyl, and always pick up the missing ones when I see them. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
FrankM Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Despite the number of tracks crammed onto each side of an LP I always thought the vinyl collection was better mastered. The original Cd releases used stereo dubs in too many cases. The latest and remasterd version of the CD collection can be had for £3 to £5 per disc in Fopp. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Matt Male Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 (edited) Nice one Chalky Was the vinyl release all the tracks put out on this cd box set? If so that must be one hellova box set you have mate. Missed that definitely............ Dr Bob Jones It's on seven double albums Came out in 1985. There was a nice 14 LP box set of Philly International from 1971 - 1986 came out around the same time. For some reason it's licensed from PI by a label called 'streetsounds' London? Nice looking box though. I'll post a picture up as soon as i can find my damn usb cable... Edited March 11, 2007 by Matt Male Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
