Elstry –
After a considerable break, the “80s Soul classics” series is back on track. The ingredients haven’t changed and the latest volume meets the expectations of a Vinyl Masterpiece release. Unlike the title suggests, the compilation goes way beyond the soul zone and explores techno-funk as well as boogie and fusion territory. If you think everything has been compiled yet, then listen and reconsider. Congress, Cuba Gooding, Wynd Chymes, Bendeth Band, Viola Wills, Will King, Pauli Carman: CHECK! This is the league of Expansion Records: all killer, no filler!
