Notes: Music from the era of classic soul, which saw the dominance of the legendary Motown, Stax, and Atlantic labels, has been ceaselessly compiled and anthologized in the decades since the 1960s. For well-versed R&B fans, another compilation isn't reason to jump up and down, but sets like ULTIMATE GRAMMY COLLECTION: CLASSIC R&B make great introductions for classic soul initiates. Admittedly, you'd have to have spent a liftetime walking around with your hands over your ears to not have heard iconic tracks such as Aretha Franklin's "Respect," Sam and Dave's "Soul Man," Otis Redding's "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay," Ike and Tina's "Proud Mary," and Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing." Nonetheless, this is heavy-duty stuff, making it impossible to go wrong with ULTIMATE as a primer on soul essentials.
