Casual soul fans know Arthur Conley from his smash hit from 1967, "Sweet Soul Music," a bubbling ode to soul giants like his mentor Otis Redding, Lou Rawls, Wilson Pickett, and Sammy Davis, Jr. (?). Collectables' 2004 compilation of Conley's 1967 releases (Sweet Soul Music and Shake Rattle & Roll) seeks to shed some light on Conley's other work. Sadly, there isn't much going on, as Conley is quite derivative and lightweight. His vocals switch between aping Otis and channeling Sam Cooke (check out his take on "Shake, Rattle & Roll" for the most obvious Cooke homage), and the tunes that aren't covers rarely stick. It is pleasant enough, to be sure, and there are some gems sprinkled throughout, like the driving "Love Got Me" and the sweet ballad "You Don't Have to See Me," but a best-of collection would have served Conley and soul fans better, maybe even a reissue of Ichiban's solid and out of print Sweet Soul Music: The Best of Arthur Conley. ~ Tim Sendra Sweet Soul Music/Shake, Rattle & Roll Music Arthur Conley Sweet Soul Music/Shake, Rattle & Roll Songs | 1. | Sweet Soul Music  | |

A big chunk of the pop audience Joni Mitchell had earned with Court and Spark in 1974 deserted her in 1975 and 1976 when the follow-ups, The Hissing of Summer Lawns and Hejira, proved more difficult works. With this pretentious double album, Mitchell lost many of the loyal fans who'd stuck with her from the beginning but who now, as she spread her obscure poetic observations and thin melodies across whole sides of the album, found her disengaged ...
