Various Artists: Black Gold: 4CD

Black Gold is a 1993 Disky four-CD set of classic soul, heavy on the sweet Philadelphia sound of the '70s. It brings Archie Bell & The Drells' “Let's Groove,” the Philadelphia All Stars' “Let's Clean Up The Ghetto,” McFadden & Whitehead's “Ain't No Stopping Us Now,” The O'Jays, Billy Paul and Lou Rawls. The Jones Girls, Gladys Knight & The Pips' “Midnight Train To Georgia” and “Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me,” P.P. Arnold's “The First Cut Is The Deepest” and Teddy Pendergrass's “Love T.K.O.” round it out. It's a deep dive into soul and R&B gold.
