Various Artists - Numeros Eccentric Soul Review (2009) Numero - Rare Soul (FLAC 414MB)

A long deleted from stock CD & a Live One! Motown had one, so did Stax. Three deep soul acts and one smoking hot band to back them up. The triple-header of R&B: the soul revue. Once a mainstay of theaters, gymnasiums and halls everywhere, the soul revue ultimately vanished in the late seventies as recorded sound pushed live performance out of the limelight and onto car stereos and refrigerator sized boom boxes. The performers returned to their day jobs and the world was the poorer for it. That is, until April 4th, 2009, when the Numero Group, one of the world's premier reissue labels, mounted the first Eccentric Soul Review, packing Chicago's Park West Theater with sou hungry fans, satisfying them with the real thing. A seventeen piece band backing, The Notations, Renaldo Domino, The Final Solution, Nate Evans and Syl Johnson, putting on a show that combined seventies slick with revival meeting fervor. It was a magical evening, as the past lived and breathed and got on down, right here in the present. Those in attendance went home that night knowing they'd seen something that just wasn't done anymore. And they went home wanting more. The Numero Group took this show on the road, Syl Johnson, Renaldo Domino and the Notations, backed by JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound also performed at Columbus, Washington DC, and two boroughs of New York City thats as much as i could research...
