Des racines du genre en passant par ses incontournables, ses perles méconnues et ses développements contemporains, la compilation Soul Fever retracera dès le 18 septembre plus d’un demi-siècle de soul music en 60 titres réunis sur 4-CDs compilés par l’équipe de Funk★U.
Regroupée sur quatre volumes thématiques (The Roots of Soul, Classic Soul, Deep Soul et Modern Soul), cette sélection réunit les pionniers de la soul (Ray Charles, Nina Simone, Jackie Wilson, Joe Tex…), ses maîtres absolus (James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin…) et ses flamboyants héritiers (Jamie Lidell, Alice Russell, Nicole Willis, Bilal…). Tracklisting ci-dessous.
