Various Artists - Todays Soulful Sound Of Detroit Various Artists: Today’s Soulful Sound of Detroit

The Detroit Sound Returns. A follow up to the highly acclaimed release of the Classic Detroit Style R&B CD. “Today’s Soulful Sound of Detroit” takes us a step further back in time to The Golden Age of Detroit Music while at the same time propelling us into the future of Detroit music. Featuring eight songs from the British LP release, with five songs from a previous release, the additional songs include The Funk Factor’s slick and funky “Here We Come”, the sweet stepping “Physically Attracted To You” by Sterling Davis and ReNeda’s rousing “Be Free”. With so many great songs it’s hard to pick what to highlight, but “Come Inside” by Faschone and the remixed version of “Anytime You Need Love” by Forte with the sizzling vocals of Jose Hamilton take a prominent stand. The best suggestion, take your pick and choose your favorite selection. The Detroit Sound is Coming Back Strong.
