Real Mod Music

The list author says:
	"Does exactly what it says on the tin. No expense spared as far as licensing goes, shame there is not enough blues..."

The list author says:
	"So it's great that they rectified this in the second volume."

The list author says:
	"This is just records from Atlantic and its subsidiaries, but It Ain't What You Got, Que Sera Sera, Comin' Home Baby, Three Time Loser- it hits all the right spots."

The list author says:
	"Started off just releasin US Sue records, but then anything that sounded interesting at the time. Aimed at the mod crowd, and it delivers."

The list author says:
	"Ain't Love Good, Ain't Love Proud; another mod classic. Some duds here, but overall this stuff is perfect for the production values and soulful performances of the singers. And great tunes to boot."

The list author says:
	"It's not just the obvious ones that do it; check out I'm the Greatest, an unclassifiable song that transcends genres. The voice, the music and the passion. Class."

The list author says:
	"Joe Tex is untouchable- check out I'm gonna get it for the perfect mod record. The horns, the soul, the rhythm, the blues, the hook it's all there in spades."

The list author says:
	"Up there with Bobby Bland (and often surpassing him) Little Milton took blues, soul and bits of jazz and created the sound of a generation."

The list author says:
	"This is where you can get to grips with the jazz element of mod music; it's the type of jazz that hardcore jazz fans hate, soul jazz.. But it's flipping perfect for grooving at the clubs."

The list author says:
	"For more of the same; Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? The original yeh yeh"

The list author says:
	"A follow up of sorts, worth mentioning because they look the same but they are different cd's."

The list author says:
	"Man o man. Simply the best jazz soul you will ever hear. If they don't play Mr Kicks down a mod night, then trust me it ain't a mod night your at."

The list author says:
	"Sticking in the same vain; his version of Dat dere' is pretty swinging once you get past that shoddy intro. Unwaveringly cool throughout/"

The list author says:
	"Another Atlantic mod collection. LaVern Baker's You Better Find yourself another fool; wow. Also the title track, covered so many times it'll make you sick,  what is soul and this Aretha's best."

The list author says:
	"Talking of which, check out Aretha with a shed load of blues, jazz, soul and hammond. Yeah there's some dross, but her version of Evil Gal knocks the original out of the park and One Room paradise."

The list author says:
	"You can't forget the Motorcity. They never got it so right; this is classic Motown, before everything got funky, boring and derivitave of other songs. Motown doing it its own way. Get em all."

The list author says:
	"It was like Curtis Mayfield had his pulse on what was happening halfway across the world. Nearly every song qualifies as mod."

The list author says:
	"Some slow 'uns and some groovers. Although it's on the cusp of Mod's end, It's a Hang up Baby is a top notch bit of soul/early funk."

The list author says:
	"Either this or the Kent cd's; a good blues artistm became a pioneer blues/soul singer in the 60's."

The list author says:
	"A jazz label recording blues artists with jazz players; too good to be true? It really happened, stunning stuff."

The list author says:
	"I couldn't care how much this goes for these days; worth every penny. Edwin Starr is a Mod legend."

The list author says:
	"Another highly priced treasure. Every track is just perfect Motown/60's soul with enough bite to make it slot right into those club playlists."

The list author says:
	"At least have What I'd Say; anything else from that era is a bonus. Yeah this is a cop out, but it's all good and the single album releases aren't readily available anyway."

The list author says:
	"B.B. backed with an orchestra, it swings and hits the rhythm hard. Another soul/blues triumph."

The list author says:
	"More Motown; you can never get enough of the pre-1969 stuff."
