"FOR MILLIONAIRES ONLY" Vol. 4

While a small but passionate cult of purists and vinyl fetishists ensure that the rarest Northern soul singles still command astronomical prices on secondary markets like eBay, everyone else can enjoy the lost riches of '60s soul on CD, literally paying pennies for compilations of rare grooves once possessed only by the most diligent, fortunate, and deep-pocketed collectors. The fourth volume in the tongue-in-cheek-titled For Millionaires Only assembles 20 more of the scarcest singles ever to pack Northern dancefloors, some so rare they were mastered directly from vinyl -- still, the sound quality is for the most part solid throughout, and in any case the disc is a bargain at virtually any price given the cumulative market value of the music contained herein. Highlights include Sonny Fishback's "Heart Breaking Man," the Modern Soul Trio's "You Ain't No Good," the Matadors' "Say Yes Baby," and the Montclairs' "Hey You! Don't Fight It." by Jason Ankeny, Allmusic

Andi said...

muchas gracias!

you also have to be rich to purchase the 4 cds - or do we have fake prices at amazon?

soulboy said...

Andi,have a look on ebay.You should pick them up for a reasonable price either new or second hand.Unfortunately though some of the Goldmine CD's are going for silly money.Saw a copy of Ultimate Girl Groups GSCD 6Z go for over a hundred pounds the other week.Sorry Gyro to jump on your post with this.Hope you don't mind.
