| | 20 Best Of Percy Sledge CD Percy Sledge Discography of CDs
OK, for starters, a collection like this is not meant to be definitive. It's a factory job that pulls together some solid tracks for a decent price and is meant for those who want something by an artist that reasonably presents her or him in light of the accomplishments that made her or him a legend in the first place. To that end, this collection scores in spades. While Percy Sledge's biggest hit, "When a Man Loves a Woman," kicks it off, there is no downhill slide for the remaining 19 cuts. His versions of soul classics like "Dark End of the Street," "Try a Little Tenderness," "Tell It Like It Is," "You Send Me," "It Tears Me Up," "I've Been Loving You Too Long," "Baby Help Me," and "My Special Prayer" can be argued about forever in terms of whether they are definitive or not, but there is no debate concerning the authoritative nature of their presentation. Sledge's voice sends chills down the spine of the listener over and again no matter what he sings, and this collection is one solid offering from top to bottom. ~ Thom Jurek 20 Best Of Percy Sledge Music 20 Best Of Percy Sledge Review

The Ace of Cups never released a record, but this 73-minute CD was compiled from late-'60s "rehearsals, demos, TV soundstages, and in-concert tapes," according to the liner notes. (Unfortunately no dates are given for any of the tracks, except the 1966 Denise & Company single "Boy, What'll You Do Then," a garage rock rarity with future Ace of Cups member Denise Kaufman on lead vocals.) It might not be fair to judge a band on recordings that were not originally intended for wide circulation, and did not benefit from truly professional studio production (though the fidelity's fine). However, simply to judge the music that's here, it's frankly pretty erratic, and not a convincing argument that they might have developed into a first-rate band had they gotten a real record deal. Rawness is not always a bad thing, but at its most raw -- particularly on the bluesy garage rockers -- the group often teeter on the line of sloppy amateurism. There's some promise here in some ...
