15. The Goldwax Story Vol.1 by Various Artists

The list author says:

16. The Very Best Of Etta James: The Chess Singles by Etta James

The list author says:
	"The real Queen of Soul- and some classic songs, and her voice is more than capable of carrying the weaker ones. This is a budget priced cd with her chess singles but the sound quality is still good."

17. The Kent Years by Ike and Tina Turner

The list author says:
	"She never used to be an embarrasing Grandma- she was the sixties most bold, exciting and energetic performer. Along with the best of Loma records, this has most of the non-Phil Spector mid-60s songs."

18. Loma Records-Best of by Various

The list author says:
	"But It's Alright is a soul classic, and you get some early Ike/Tina, the Marvellos. Not as distinct sounding as Motown or Stax, but some prime slices of sixties soul."

19. Chess Northern Soul by Marlena Shaw

The list author says:
	"Some more choice cuts from the back-catalogue of Chess. A bit of an overlap with some of the above, but Lets Wade in the Water by Marlena Shaw and More and More by Little Milton make this worthwhile"

22. Vee Jay Records: Chicago Hit Factory by Various Artists

The list author says:
	"Charly have been doing a great job with box sets, despite the low prices these are excellent boxsets; Vee Jay output stands besides the bigger labels and is often criminally overlooked"

23. The Instant and Minit Story: the Definitive History - from the Golden Age of New Orleans R&B by Various Artists

24. Moods of Marvin Gaye/in the Groove by Marvin Gaye

25. Soul of Sue Records: New York City by Various Artists

The list author says:
	"This is some of the better known tracks from Sue- the 1995 boxset is superior but much rarer and expensive and usually only available on import which will probably incur import tax."
