Christmas Soul Special
Various Artists
Released:
Sep 1987
Label:
Varrick
This collection of 1960s soul greats singing holiday tunes may have been recorded in 1982, when most of the artists were well past their prime, but it still has a classic, deep soul sound. Highlights include Wilson Pickett singing "Jingle Bells" like his life depends on this sleigh ride, and the groovy bassline supporting Martha Reeves' stirring vocal on "Noel."
