"DEEP SOUL INFERNO"

Goldmine label compilations can be a bit patchy but 'Deep Soul Inferno' doesn't miss a beat - it's easily as good as the first (and best) volume of Ace's 'Dave Godin's Deep Soul Treasures' series, which set the standard for the entire genre. There are few 'names' here except Gloria 'Tainted Love' Jones, and maybe Spencer Wiggins and Otis Clay, but as the Dave Godin CDs prove, obscurity is often the hallmark of quality - these songs were simply too intense to be hits. It's out of print but well worth tracking down. (Amazon)
