With a total of 30 tracks, SOUL CLASSICS features recordings from the Isley Brothers, the O'Jays, Earth Wind & Fire, Teddy Pendergrass, Luther Vandross, David Ruffin, James Brown, Marvin Gaye, the Jackson 5, Boys II Men, and Gladys Knight & the Pips, among many others. Sixteen uncut classic soul oldies from the play list of Philadelphia's premiere classic soul station, WDAS FM. Included is every heart-pounding minute of Sweet Thunder's "Baby I Need Your Love Today," the Ebonys' beautiful "It's Forever," and the O'Jays' gutwrenching "Stairway to Heaven." Tack on the Futures' "Love Is Here," Michael Henderson's "Be My Girl," Heatwave's "Always and Forever," Earth, Wind & Fire's "Reason," and the Intruders' "I Wanna Know Your Name," and purchasing Classic Soul Hits becomes a no-brainer. WDAS' rich history includes famed jocks Georgie Woods, Jimmy Bishop, Joe "Butterball" Tamburro, and Jacko Henderson. Ed Bradley of 60 Minutes fame once worked on WDAS as did Philadelphia's Queen of Gospel Music and now State Representative Louise Williams Bishop. ~ Andrew Hamilton   Technical Info Release Date : 03/14/2006 Original Release Date : 1996 Catalog ID : 7010 Label : Collectables Records Number of Discs : 2 Runtime : 89m : 14s Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00090431701027    Product Image
