Product Description
Album Description
Godinesque may well be a new adjective in our language, but it aptly describes this latest volume of Deep Soul Treasures in which Dave has made yet another eclectic selection, combining old favourites with an alluring assortment of left-field gems. In latter years, Deep Soul has become synonymous with ballads, but Dave originally coined the term to apply to songs deep in passion and intensity of delivery rather than to reflect tempo, so don't expect a session of emotive ballads - though these are generously represented here. This volume combines equal measures of familiarity and obscurity and the net result is a no compromise compilation of outstanding, classic and rare Deep Soul sides...the ultimate in American soul music. Calling this compilation essential is, to say the least, an understatement and it’s certainly set to garner the critical and commercial acclaim accorded the previous three best-selling volumes (CDKEND 143 / 158 / 200). Includes a lavish booklet in the finest Deep Soul Treasures’ tradition, wholly resplendent with copious label reproductions, memorabilia, and of course the erudite and supremely informative notes.

Less obscurity, but just as much Soul,
By
This review is from: Dave Godin's Deep Soul Treasures:Taken From The Vaults... Volume 4 (Audio CD)
After 3 albums devoted largely to unjustifiably obscure deep-soul sides, the irreplaceable Dave Godin has put together his 'Deep Soul treasures Vol 4', and has included a few tunes that might even be familiar to non hard-core soul fans. And the album is,in my opinion, none the worse for this. In the UK, soul has always been a somewhat elitist genre, whether in the areas of impossibly rare (and sometimes, impossibly dire),Northern soul 'discoveries', unreleased 'rare groove' funk tracks or mind-bogglingly uncommercial 'deep-soul'. Well, fine, it is wonderful to be 'in' on any art form of which the rest of the world seems ignorant , but I feel that, by including fairly well known (and some, like the Miracles 'Tracks of My Tears', very well-known) songs is an effective way of removing some of the elitism and mystique from the music. The success of the previous volumes in this series proves that an important audience still exists for this desparateley unfashionable style of soul. Volume 4 will continue the tradition. Listen, and be amazed.

Essential Compilation,
By
This review is from: Dave Godin's Deep Soul Treasures:Taken From The Vaults... Volume 4 (Audio CD)
I didn't think it would be possible for Mr Godin to match let alone improve on the brilliance of Volume 3, but incredibly he's done it again and surpassed his previous releases.Everything here sits so well together,an absolute joy from track 1 to track 25. Gems such as My Baby by Garnett Mimms and The day after Forever by Paul Kelly are personal favourites, but that does not detract from the quality of product here. One thing puzzles though: why on earth was 'You Make Me Feel Good'by Lawrence & Jaibi shelved in 1970? What a stunner!. The usual great liner notes are here, including a marvellous soul epiphany from Kevin McCardle. Buy it today.

Godin again,

This review is from: Dave Godin's Deep Soul Treasures:Taken From The Vaults... Volume 4 (Audio CD)
Dave Godin augments his considerable, regrettably posthumous, reputation as the doyen of soul aficionados with this estimable collection of classic tracks. You won't be disappointed.
