The featured artists range from stars like Aretha Franklin and Patti LaBelle (here with her quartet, The Blue Belles), to less familiar artists such as Margie Joseph (nicknamed “the next Aretha”) and Doris Troy. Many of the songs on this compilation are unfamiliar, even if the singers are not. Many of the tracks had only been released as singles, and consequently are rare treasures some thirty years later. |
