V.A. - the sound of the south 2011

En mi ultimo post comentaba el fantastico box de los Fame Studios ,no pensaba que ninguna edicion de este año pudiera superarla, pero me acabo de encontrar con esto y que me pone los pelos de punta. Como se suele decir no estan todos los que son , que todos los que estan "son "... o algo asi. El listado de artistas es increible, lo podeis comprobar en la imagen adjunta. Es una recopilacion de un holandes de nombre impronunciable "Leo Blokhuis", donde ha unido el amor del country y el soul. Temas de superfiguras como Elvis, Aretha, Solomon Burke, Wilson Pickett, Tony Joe White, Dan Penn, Eddie Hinton.. junto a joyas "sin tanto renombre" como William Bell, Joe Hinton, ZZ Hill, Willie Hightower... 4 discos increibles, por un precio bastante asequible ( aunque desconozco si lleva libreto o no..). Southern soul, swamp, country soul, blue eyed soul, gospel soul..todo lo que podais llamarle soul !!! espero haberme portado bien este año, porque mis reyes tendran que venir muy cargaditos.
