CD Reviews

Excellent Twofer From The Past

rollo | usa | 03/24/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Here we have a sweet, soulful, two album collection from 1960's Atlantic Records by R&B song stylist, Ben E King. These recordings have been out of print for 40 years and they have been re mastered skillfully by DBK Works of San Francisco. All of the recordings are STEREO. 'Soulful Lovers' consists of standard tunes and standard soul tunes like like 'What A Difference A Day Made' and 'It's All In The Game'. 'Seven Letters'is a real soulful gem of an album where songs like 'It's No Good For Me', 'Si Senor',and 'It's All Over' will rip your heart right out of your chest. Far out, man!"

Very Disappointed

"I recently purchased this CD, and was most disappointed to find that the vocals of Ben E King could only be faintly heard on the first four songs. The music is good, but I purchased this CD to listen to Ben E King, not instrumentals.

I wouldn't recommend this CD to anyone."
