Following the first LP of Tom Jones's finest soulful performances on the radio, Soul Man, History of Soul presents a second album of soul songs that should have released but never did. The focus this time is on his TV performances, the bulk of which come from 1969 and reflect his personal preference for covering Stax, Atlantic, and Motown material. So put aside your preconceptions if you have any and listen to his collaborations with Aretha, Smokey, Janis, Cher, Dusty and don't forget that Wicked Wicked Pickett. With a tight, funky band led by Herbie Flowers, this is big band soul at its very best.

Live set from Aretha Franklin never before heard on a commercial release. And it is with pride that History of Soul can say that the recordings, made in a TV studio in Cologne during her first European tour in 1968, are smack in the middle of soul's Golden Age. The musical quality -- the great artist at her peak -- is so high that this issue can only enhance her reputation. This is prime Aretha Franklin -- and soul music doesn't get much better than this.
