This music is so fiery that merely listening to will bring sweat to your brow. But the creators of such classics as "Soul Man" and "Hold On, I'm Coming" won't stand just for listening. The energy between Sam and Dave is infectious enough to propel you to your feet. Their harmonies are tight, echoed by thrilling horn riffs, bursts of guitar solos, and when it's all about to explode, they settle back with a ballad like "When Something Is Wrong with My Baby" that's every bit as moving as their uptempo tracks. This is what happens when church music goes clubbing. <I>--Robert Gordon</I>

Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Never received the item.......2007-05-12

I would love to review the item I ordered, but I never received it, and I have never received a refund!

4 out of 5 stars Nice.......2007-02-06

It's clearly an older disc, and it sounds like they dubbed it straight from the reel. I love that warm sound, especially with music like this.

5 out of 5 stars AND So Much More.......2007-01-10

The world of show business is not a place where shrinking violets bloom. On the contrary, it is known for bombast, opportunism, and egos larger and more gaseous than zeppelins.

Consequently it is rare indeed to find an act featuring two prodigious talents who have chosen to share billing equally. This extraordinary gesture of selflessness is indicated by the word - AND - which links the two names.

A small handful of examples comes to mind where two geniuses are paired. The Captain And Tennille, of course, The Fluorescent Leech And Eddie, and the late lamented duo, Wayland Flowers And Madame who, tragically, died simultaneously.

Add to this distinguished list the names, Sam And Dave. These powerhouse singers, who secured their place in history with a few hits covered by shabby second-stringers, simply define everything that is good about R&B. In fact, if you were beginning an R&B collection, this outstanding CD would be an excellent place to start.

You'll find barnburners like Soul Man and I Thank You, among many others, but you may be surprised how these guys work a ballad. The Best Of Sam AND Dave delivers the goods; and so much more.

5 out of 5 stars We got a good quality one, no "hissing".......2006-11-08

I have this one too - BEST OF SAM & DAVE, and although a couple other reviewers stated that there was hissing on the SOOTHE ME track, my copy does not have hissing or any other sound distortion. On the whole, this collection is a pretty good sampler of their rollin' best.

3 out of 5 stars Sam & Dave CD.......2006-06-26

I got what I ordered. The plastic case was broken. The CD Now preferred buyers club claims to have a link to report this type of claim. The link is a dead end. Service rates a single star. Another disc in the same order also had a broken case. The club should back up their products.
