Michael McDonald soul speak is a very good cd well worth having if you like the doobie Brothers or just Michael McDonald

Not a bad track on this disc. Grinding organ, wailing sax, soaring flutes, soulful funk vocals, cool thumping bass lines with wah wah guitar. Punctuated with latino beats and borderline free jazz. Opening with Jack Wilkins’ excellent version of Red Clay you do get the feeling from the start this CD is going places! Admittedly there are a couple of track edits. However, to appease the purists these work very well. Not strictly mixed, there’s little to no pause between tracks. There’s thought in the track sequencing which allows the music to flow with ease, and not tiring on the listener. Excellent sound quality, and a fold out mini poster type inlay slip that features all the album covers. Closing with Charles McPhersons’ pleasing version of Johns Coltrane’s Naima . . .this compilation is 79 minutes & 30 seconds of pure delight. Vinyl is dead . . . long live CD ! !

I've recently started listening to Alicia Keys after seeing her on Instagram, and I think she's pretty good. Her songs are great and I like her singing. I think she's really popular over there now...

I really like this artist's vocal quality and volume. The content of his songs is diverse, and Jay-Z's songs have a different feel to them. I'm looking forward to his future work. I received CDs today and it was well protect the CDs.

As with any compilation, it's unlikely anyone will like every track. That said, this is a very good set which starts off with a bang and maintains the energy until the last couple of tracks - when you're reminded it's a compilation, and the selector has decided to shift everything down a gear and drop some inferior cover versions. A shame, but you can't have everything.

I had never heard of this band before until I heard the final song in the movie "There's Something About Mary" called "Build Me Up Buttercup" and I decided I had to find this song on cd and after extensive research I found this album on cdjapan by this band called The Foundations. Thankfully this album has that track as a bonus on this cd and it also has the other track that I really like: "Baby, Now That I've Found You" which is really nice. I've very late in discovering this band but as they say better late than never and I have to say that the other albums tracks are also very good; no fillers here to my ear. Also for mlps collectors like me this package is well done and better than most of the mlps packaging that's released these days. Overall highly recommended especially if you like UK-style Northern Soul.

I got the first album on mini-lp sleeve from cdjapan because I wanted the hits: "Build Me Up Buttercup" and "Baby, Now That I've Found You" which was a very satisfying purchase so I decided to try out this other album of theirs and while it doesn't have a strong hits like those two the album overall is also satisfying with very strong examples of the Northern Soul genre with no filler that I can hear. In fact as an overall consistently good album this one is it and I'm happy with my purchase. For mlps collectors like myself the packaging is also very good just like the other album I bought from here. Highly recommended for fans of this genre.

fantastic album by Underworld , the sound quality is great and the dance sound is back with excellent voices. Great new studio tracks, which are lovely. A real recommendation this cd with a bonus track for Japan only.

released in early 1976 , this is actually a more balanced in terms of song writing quality album. Although it does not include any major hit like the previous album (love to love you baby)

This show recorded in Tokyo on dec 1990 is quite interesting because Stevie played rare songs like "Stay Gold", "Truth Is The light" or "Sorry". Sound quality is quite good. This show was broadcasted on TV in Japan only at the time and it's probably taken from a master tape but anyway this is a very nice one and Stevie's voice is crystal clear. A masterpiece from his 1990 Japanese tour.

I really liked how this album sounded drumless and it is a great companion to the original disk. But in the end casual listeners will not be impressed. For Daft Punk fans only.

A great overview of Donna Summers catalogue and with a DVD of the Disco Diva in action. Excellent stuff.

The album that for many out there was their first introduction to the world of electronic music. Kraftwerk's Autobahn set the template for many to follow. A masterwork that has not dimmed with time.

Have been looking for this title for quite some time but was not willing to pay $80+ here in Oz. At last I've found it at an exceptional price on CDJapan. Bargain.

The best black soul music record in history. The beautiful and gentle melody contains reflections and criticisms of American society in the 1970s. Marvin Gaye's singing is very moving. Recommended to everyone

A japanese only release not found anywhere else. The quality and the product are at the utmost fantastic!

It's almost impossible to get dissappointed by Joe. This album is another masterpiece, with great songs, uptempos & some more soulful ballads. My faves "Time Of Your Life", "Losing", "Dear Joe", "Shelter" are on heavy rotation. Wish Joe would perform these songs more. The interview is very interesting, that's why I always love to buy the japanese editions. Their extra content is all worth to spend money into it.

Love me some Alicia Keys and this album is amazing. Specially because she took each song and made 2 versions of them. How cool is that??? So you maybe if there's a song you don't like very much, you may check out the other versions and maybe this one get's your love. I enjoyed this album and made my own list of the songs I liked most. Alicia went deep into this with this album.

The sound engineers did a marvelous job. All CDs simply sound great. Voices clear and crisp. Bass sharp and deep. A super value of content. A very good purchase.

Beautiful reissue of this album on Blu Spec CD with the beautiful cover with hologram in great sound quality.
