What you’ll be listening to...

Your box will include a handpicked selection of two or three albums from this collection:

Gold-Diggers Sound (Alternative Cover)

Leon Bridges

Gold-Diggers Sound (Alternative Cover)

Leon Bridges

The Texas singer delivers a smooth, risk-averse R&B album whose nostalgic trappings aim for timelessness.

Gold-Diggers Sound is made by nimble moments like this: small flourishes and details bring remarkable heft to the album. The quietly brilliant production brings out the best in Bridges, who displays a remarkable amount of restraint. Many vocalists with his talent are content to blow the listener away

A4 - Why Don't You Touch Me
A5 - Magnolias
B1 - Gold-Diggers (Junior's Fanfare)

Little Girl Blue

Nina Simone

Little Girl Blue

Nina Simone

With her contralto voice and well-developed piano skills, Nina was already the full package and this debut disc is terrific.

Little Girl Blue, released in 1957, was Nina Simone's first recording, originally issued on the Bethlehem label. Backed by bassist Jimmy Bond and Albert "Tootie" Heath, it showcases her ballad voice as one of mystery and sensuality and showcases her uptempo jazz style with authority and an enigmatic down-home feel that is nonetheless elegant.

Tribute to the Lady

Sam Cooke

Tribute to the Lady

Sam Cooke

A hidden gem from Sam Cooke

An album that's seldom been seen and disappeared almost as quickly as it was released. Sam Cooke turned these songs inside out with twisting, awesome interpretations.

 It was one of the few times he was able to break out of the light pop/teen idol bag in a studio and pour his heart into great lyrics and numbers.

My Way

Frank Sinatra

My Way

Products Frank Sinatra

Throughout his seven-decade career, Frank Sinatra performed on more than 1,400 recordings and was awarded 31 gold, nine platinum, three double platinum, and one triple platinum album by the Recording Industry Association of America.

Sinatra demonstrated a remarkable ability to appeal to every generation and continues to do so; his artistry still influences many of today’s music superstars. The Oscar winner also appeared in more than 60 films and produced eight motion pictures. 

Released on Reprise in March 1969, and produced by Don Costa and Sonny Burke, My Way features a varied collection of contemporary pop songs, including Lennon and McCartney’s “Yesterday,” Simon and Garfunkel’s “Mrs. Robinson,” and the iconic title track, “My Way.” Recorded on December 30, 1968, in just one take, My Way charted in the U.S. and stayed on the U.K. charts for a record-breaking 75 weeks.

Gregory Porter

Nat King Cole & Me

Gregory Porter

Nat King Cole & Me

Cole & Me has all the lushness of those original Cole renditions, but remains very clearly the work of Porter.

This is not someone mimicking the King; this is a fully formed artist taking on that music with reverence, but with his own style. Porter's tone is impeccable, his sense of time, sublime.

Pain In My Heart

Otis Redding

Otis Redding – Pain In My Heart

Otis Redding

If someone was asked to define soul music, it would be difficult to put into words, but you could put on this record and that person would understand what soul music was almost immediately.

This album works on so many different levels, that it's essential listening for at least three categories of buyer - fans of Otis Redding and Stax Records (natch), and more general soul listeners, and also anyone serious about their devotion to the work of the Rolling Stones and any other British invasion bands that covered American soul.

Tracklist

A1 - Pain In My Heart

A2- The Dog

A3 - Stand By Me

A4 - Hey Hey Baby

A5 - You Send Me

A6 - I Need Your Lovin'

B1 - These Arms Of Mine

B2 - Louie Louie

B3 - Something Is Worrying Me

B4 - Security

B5 - That's What My Heart Needs

B6 - Lucille
