This collection encompasses the superb output of one of soul music's legends. Very few artists of this genre outside of the Tamla Motown stable could ever conceivably put together anything to rank with it. Major Lance is able to capture the full range of emotion with his voice backed up with excellent orchestral arrangements mainly thanks to the writing of Curtis Mayfield. In my experience as a Northern Soul collector, I should make comment on the tracks that I particularly find of interest.

These are, "Investigate", "You Don't Want Me No More", "It's The Beat", "Ain't No Soul" and of course, "Everybody Loves A Good Time". In their heyday these tracks especially were the standard by which other dance music was measured. Even almost 35 years on they still find a way on to most modern soul D.J. playlists. I recommend this collection to anybody with any interest in what is surely the epitome of "good old soul". You will not only have a Good Time, you will have a GREAT time!!!

These soul classics bring back great memories for me because this was family music. I grew up along with my brothers and sisters, friends and relatives listening to this music and times were good. When I left home to join the Army, my music scattered to the winds with my younger brothers and sisters. It is great to find this almost forgotten music!
