Description
Soul Classics Volume 5 is a richly curated CD that draws from the golden age of soul, assembling ten tracks from some of the genre’s most enduring voices. Bobby Womack opens with the slow-burning ‘Woman’s Gotta Have It’, while Ann Peebles delivers the raw Southern soul intensity of ‘I’m Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down’ — a track that later inspired a Paul Young hit. Al Green’s ‘Let’s Get Married’ showcases his trademark blend of gospel warmth and romantic tenderness, and Teddy Pendergrass brings his powerful, intimate style to ‘Can’t We Try’. Rounding out the set are contributions from The O’Jays, Lou Rawls, Tavares, and Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose, making this CD a rewarding listen that spans the breadth of classic soul…
