African American popular music was mostly known as Rhythm and Blues in 1962, the beginning of the era covered in this collection. But by the end of the period, 1965, the music was universally called Soul. The Chicago music industry exploded with the growth of soul music in this period, producing thousands of records and dozens and dozens of new labels. The two biggest black music labels Vee-Jay and Chess led in the creation of the Chicago soul brand with names familiar and not so familiar: the former with Etta James and Tony Adams and the latter with Gene Chandler and Moss Tolbert. And yet it's the smaller labels that make up the bulk of the Chicago story: Conlo with Jamo Thomas, Blue Rock with Otis Leaville, Ja-Wes with Sandra Stephens, and it's here that History Of Soul explores some of the finest sounds of the era in this collection. Featuring: Jamo Thomas, Tim, Billy Butler & 4 Enchanters, The Drew-vells, Chuck & Daylighters, Doris Smith, Otis Leaville, Jackie Beavers, Geraldine Taylor, Ricky Allen, The Amazers, Jerry Butler, Moss Tolbert, Sandra Stephens, The Radiants, The Ringleaders, The Vontastics, Huey & Baby Sitters, The Accents, Harvey & 7 Sounds, Roberta, Gene Chandler, Wales Wallace, Jeanette Nellis, The Vibrations, The Impressions, Henry Ford, Natalie, Gifts, Gerald Sims, Jackey Beaver, Bobby Starr, Chuck Bernard, Tony Adams, Al Perkins, The Sheppards, Sam Chatmon & Sparks, Ruby Stackhouse, Etta James, Jesse Fortune, Dee Clark, The Vondells, Wade Flemons, Edward St Ann, Sugar Pie DeSanto, The Kavetts, The Versalettes, and Donnie Elbert.
