Product Info 2CD More Info The development of black popular music is fascinating. In the 1930s, there was blues music, primarily 12-bar songs based around day-to-day experiences, a nd there was gospel music which anticipated what they hoped would be coming when they died. Gradually some dance rhythms were attached to the blues and it developed into R&B, an apt term as it was rhythm and blues. In the mid-1950s, artists like Etta James and Wilson Pickett merged R&B with gospel music to create electrifying hits – and from that combination came soul music. The 40 singles collected here stem largely from the early sixties – that glorious period that saw the start and development of soul music. It was dance-oriented and highly commercial, appealing to both black and white audiences. Tracklist Disc 11. Harlem Shuffle – Bob & Earl2. Cry To Me – Solomon Burke3. How Come – Birdie Green4.
