Salsoul in context of other artists of the 70s)
http://www.discogs.com/release/580825
http://www.discogs.com/release/478496 - liner notes of this are here

I think by far the heart of Salsoul was Walter Gibbons - his mixes and
remixes are fantastic
find any Salsoul with a Walter Gibbons production and buy it!!
on this one http://www.discogs.com/release/261494
he threw in the sounds of real fireworks going off and crowd cheers during
a big long breakdown - it's probably one of my favorites
they just don't do it like this anymore

RE: (313) Salsoul Records
First Choice Let No Man Put Asunder
Inner Life Moment Of My Life
Love Committee Just as Long as I got You
Aurra In the Mood
all the Loleatta Holloway tracks really :)
and Logg - Dancing in the Stars has been in the playlist for the past few
weeks.
You can easily find a few Best of Salsoul compilations to get you started.
