About this product
SAM & DAVE / SOUL CLASSICS - 2 CD Set / Contains Previously Unreleased Material. In the summer of 1964, Jerry Wexler of Atlantic Records was attending a DJ convention in Miami. Florida record man Henry Stone suggested he stop in at a nightclub called the King of Hearts to check out a local singing duo known as Sam & Dave. InchIt was like 165 degrees,' Wexler later told writer Rob Bowman. 'It was hot and they were hot... When I heard them there that night, that was all she wrote. I signed them up immediately.' Sam and Dave's work with producer Isaac Hayes and backing band Booker T and the M.G.'s made them a formidable team. Their hit 'Soul Man' endures today as an R&B smash and a unifying force between black and white audiences. This disc focuses on the year 1977 to 1981. Disc one offers reinterpretations of their older hits and new versions of soul classics. Disc Two features concert recordings from 1981 before their final break-up. SUNSET BLVD RECORDS

Ensemble Perspectives, an a cappella vocal quintet founded and directed by Geoffroy Heurard, creates programmes that blend the mainstream classical repertory with lesser-known composers and folk and pop songs. These pieces are sung in transcriptions 'tailor-made' for Perspectives, which works with world-renowned arrangers and composers of all aesthetic persuasions. The group's new album, entitled Playlist, allows today's ears to grasp the timeless threads that link Purcell to Brahms, a traditional song to an American song crooned by entire generations. A playful and inspired journey through the music of Purcell (Dido's Lament), Brahms, Ravel and Fauré, traditional songs such as Joshua fit the battle of Jericho and Frère Jacques, and songs by Charlie Chaplin (Smile), Michel Legrand (La Chanson de Maxence), Paul Simon (Mrs. Robinson and 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover) and Tom Waits (Alice).
