Whilst I don't agree with the title, I won't argue with the price.

A lot of them must be remakes? So many of them I never heard of.
Thanks for that Tom, I only recognized about half the tracks, I'll let you know when I receive it whether or not they are remakes, however at the price I couldn't resist.
I think some of the lesser known titles are from the last few Atlantic Albums but will check out later!
Thanks Jack020, it does say the tracks are from Buddah, Atlantic & Philly Int.
The unknown songs are from the last 2 Atlantic albums Slipping Out and Mixin' It Up from 1980.
I have the O'Jays and Chaka Khan Music Club sets. I appreciate the thoroughness of their sets, but the sound quality is always a bit lacking.
So many of them I mixed and when my name was by some and not on others I wonder what versions they are using?
IMHO, a "definitive collection"; "best of"; "vey best of";... in the case of The Trammps is not complete without the two tracks where Jimmy Ellis is at his best in his "shouting / wilson pickett / gospel" style. I'm referring to "Shout" [[the intro is a definition of shouting style) and the acapella version of "Move" on CNR records, where Jimmy's voice is not only supreme but also the echo and reverberance [[seems he is in the church!) is... i don't found the words to describe it!
Cheers to all [[and kisses for the ladies)
Thanks for the replies, I'll see if I can give more info when I receive the CDs, I've just come back from London where I baulked at the £35 price tag on the recently issued Earl Van Dyke 2CD set, no wonder they are struggling to sell cd's, when it's £10.99 at Amazon UK.
