HiRez Poll Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - BLACK AND BLUE & WAKE UP EVERYBODY [SACD]

[Scott65]

great music and great quad (i must stop saying this, but DV keeps releasing great material). 10! I was surprised that this group did the original version of Dont leave me this way. Wake up everybody is such a great song!

I already had Black and Blue on vinyl. I didn't know what to expect with Wake up Everybody, but it turns out that's my favorite of these two albums. Interesting to note how Wake Up Everybody is less R&B and is a smoother 70's keyboard-driven sound. As per usual with DV, these reissues are sonically and mix-wise well done.
