Description
A companion volume to the Kent CD Mainstream Modern Soul (CDKEND 449), Super Duper Love offers a further exploration of the mid-1970s releases of Bob Shad's Mainstream label and its subsidiaries that will delight all connoisseurs of quality soul and funk from that era. Super Duper Love features a wealth of great black American music from a particularly varied and fertile period. Ten of the 24 tracks placed on the Billboard R&B charts, with a few also crossing over to pop. Artists include respected soul and R&B legends of the calibre of Little Richard, Sugar Billy (Garner), Freddie Scott, the Dramatics, Doris Duke and Lenny Welch - names whose presence on a CD is a guarantee of quality. None have been issued on UK CD before. From Northern to Southern soul, from funk to ballads, Super Duper Love really does demonstrate how great and how varied 70s black American music was in the first half of the decade before disco gained almost total control.
