70'S Funk & Soul Classics / Various 70'S Funk & Soul Classics / Various CD

2 CD set and Digitally Remastered. A really heavy duty collection featuring some of the biggest names in soul music. These are the grand masters of funk, the bandleaders and artist who provided the dynamic sound track for an exciting decade. When you've got James Brown singing 'I Got Ants in My Pants' you know you're in for an itchy night out. And when Isaac Hayes tells you to 'Do Your Thing' then you'd better believe it. All musical aspects of the genre are represented, from the driving dance rhythms of Sly Stone to the more introspective instruments work of Timmy Thomas, the organist who caused quite a buzz with 'Why Can't We Live Together.' Here are the great vocal groups, the Isley Brothers and Gladys Knight and the Pips and the soulful balladeers like Bobby Womack, Al Green and the late great Curtis Mayfield. In the words of the Dramatics 'Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get.'
