Review of Heart Full Of Soul CD in U.K. magazine In The Basement
Review of the re-issue pressing of The Soul Survivors -- When The Whistle Blows Anything Goes With The Soul Survivors . . Vampi-Soul Records.
Some of the best blue-eyed soul to come out of America during the late 60s -- a soaring batch of tunes from a combo that broke down borders wherever they went! The album's the first by the group -- and easily their best -- based around their biggest hit ever, "Expressway (To Your Heart)", one of those songs you've heard a million times, but which always grabs you when it hits the break in the chorus! There's none of the "fake soul" style vocals that rock acts in later years would try to pick up, and these guys instead play like they're just a Philly group, ready to mash it up at some tasty club gigs. The whole thing's great, and titles include "Do You Feel It", "Respect", "Hey Gyp", "The Rydle", and "Taboo-India". CD features 4 bonus tracks all written and arranged by Gamble & Huff -- including regular and extended versions of "Explosion In Your Soul", plus "Impossible Mission" and "Poor Man's Dream".
