Soul 66: From The Vaults Of Atlantic, Atco, Calla, Loma, Reprise, Roulette, Stax, Volt & Warner Bros

91-track box gathering hits and rarities from 1966: the year that soul music broke big. Hits include Wilson Pickett's 'Land Of 1,000 Dances' (US R&B #1, US #6), Sam And Dave's 'Hold On I'm Comin' (US R&B #1, US #21), Eddie Floyd's 'Knock On Wood' (US R&B #1, US #28), Carla Thomas' 'B-A-B-Y' (US R&B #3, US #14), Otis Redding's 'Try A Little Tenderness' (R&B #4, US #25) and Darrell Banks' 'Open The Door To Your Heart' (US R&B #2, US #27).

There's northern soul floorfillers such as Darrell Banks' 'Our Love Is In The Pocket', The Marvellos' 'Something's Burnin'', The Blossoms' 'That's When The Tears Start', Bobby Womack's 'Find Me Somebody', Mary Wells' Keep Me In Suspense', Charles Thomas' 'The Man With The Golden Touch', and Bobby McNutt's 'I'm Gettin' Ready'.

This isn't just about hits, there's B-sides, obscurities and a couple of Loma tracks that were unissued until the 21st century. The focus may be mainly on the dancefloor but  there's also room for a few deep soul numbers such as Jeff Dale's sublime 'A Suffering Pain'.
