Synopsis

Album Description
Subtitled - The Sexiest Songs of R&B. From Richard Foos-the co-founder of Rhino Records-comes the first release from his new enterprise, Shout! Entertainment, and it's simply the most romantic and downright sexiest collection of R&B ever assembled-somehow Richard and his crack compilers (from over 15 labels and three decades) have captured the feeling you got when you had your first slow dance! Includes 'Too Late to Turn Back Now' Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose, 'Could It Be I'm Falling in Love' Spinners, 'Show and Tell' Al Wilson, 'You're the First, the Last, My Everything' Barry White, 'I Only Have Eyes for You' Flamingos and 'Let's Get It On' Marvin Gaye and more. 60 tracks. Standard jewel cases housed in a box (approx. 6 x 12 x 1''). Sony. 2003.

CD Reviews

You simply MUST buy this box set!

"Let me state right up-front: I'm an R & B fan, but I'm not a student of this musical genre.
So, I listened for the pure enjoyment of it.
Having said that, I'm astounded by the excellence of this collection.
SHOUT! Entertainment has compiled a captivating box set that encompasses three CDs and 60 tracks covering approximately 23 years of R & B love songs.
The selection issue dates range from 1958 to 1981.
In addition, the set is accompanied by an outstanding 39-page booklet that features archival photographs and track annotations that offer insight into the groups and tracks represented.
The booklet was written with great intelligence.
I enjoyed the fact that no musical artist was represented twice; therefore, the set offers a great deal of breadth and variety.
I am not steeped enough in R & B to know who should have been included but was not; however, not a single included track disappointed me.
Yes, I had my favorites:
I Only Have Eyes for You (The Flamingos);
This Magic Moment (The Drifters); OOO Baby Baby (The Miracles);
Have You Seen Her (The Chi-Lites);
When a Man Loves a Woman (Percy Sledge);
If You Don't Know Me By Now (Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes);
Hey There Lonely Girl (Eddie Holman);
Tell It Like It Is (Aaron Neville); and
Turn Off the Lights (Teddy Pendergrass). WOW!
Witness this --
(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman (Aretha Franklin) is a life-transforming experience!!!
I liked too that these are the original artists singing the original tracks.
No latter-day pretenders here.
The production value of the set was first-rate and the tracks were sequenced with great care.
In closing, it's clear to me that "Rhythm Love and Soul" was compiled and released by true lovers of R & B love songs.
I'm delighted I bought it.
Don't miss out."
