***Vampisoul presents the ultimate compilation of Spanish Soul music from the ‘60s and ‘70s! Licensed from the owners of the masters, and carefully researched and manufactured, the album features thirty-seven kick-ass tracks. Fuel for igniting dance floors and parties: that’s what Spanish Soul was during the second half of the sixties. It was an eruption that filled the locals of major cities and touristy spots with sweat, dance, diversion and recognition. Soul was approachable and had playful-vindicating references (messages in favor of civil rights didn’t fall on deaf ears in a country subjected to the Francoist Dictatorship) which made it an ideal style for all young audiences. But once they were adopted by Soul, other problems arose. The brass section is one example: it wasn’t easy finding musicians who knew how to play the trumpet, saxophone or the trombone. Despite this fact, the tourist phenomenon contributed to a great number of foreign musicians establishing themselves in Spain, enriching the sound of many groups dedicated to Black music. Packaged with complete liner notes to boot.
