Free Music Review: Soul Music At its Best Hit: 5 StarsThe Delfonics are a classic Philly soul group from the late 60's and 70's. Primarily a rap fan, I was not even close to being born when these guys were doing their thing, but I feel that these times were the best for R&B. Lead singer William Hart has such a dope tenor voice, and his group drop some of the best choruses I have ever heard. The choruses complement Hart's solos so well. The music is slower to mid-tempo, my favorite style in R&B. This collection is perfect for anyone reminiscing on the good old days, or for any novices like myself who want a history lesson on the legacy of soul. "Trying To Make A Fool Of Me" (1970) has to be one of my favorite soul jams of all time, or should say, favorite song of any genre of all time. I love the funky beat and sitar twangs, and the heartbreaking lyrics. The chorus is simply amazing. "La-La Means I Love You" (1968) has a simple but gorgeous chorus. The harmony is simply amazing!! The beat is sweet for cuddling with ya boo on a gloomy, cold winter day, or riding with the top down. The horns on "Ready Or Not Here I Come" add a cool effect. These guys are some of the best crooners of all time. "Tell Me This Is A Dream" has an airy, and the vocals take you sky high. Anyone digging sweet soul music with awesome vocal ranges and harmonic choruses, the Delfonics are a group that had it goin' on. Too bad they were so underrated.

Free Music Review: Soul Heaven Hit: 4 StarsA great soul album. I missed out on the Delfonics in the 70's, but was alerted to what they were by the Quentin Tarantino film "Jackie Brown". Great songs, performed with true conviction and musicality.
