This review is from: Salsoul 12-Inch Gold Masters 1 (Audio CD)

this is the first salsoul gold master in a series of three. this This the best one. all the songs are terriffic. true you get the salsoul hustle on Salsouls greatest hits but not the extended version! then you have the dance a little bit closer by charo. at first hearing it might sound corny but after a few plays its very hypnotic. then you get the smaller talents that are not on the Salsoul classics 1-4. The best on here are Dance a litle bit closer, helplessly, Falling in love, Love is finally comin' my way. The others are unreleased versions you already have if you got the Salsoul classics 1-4. My least favorite is love is you.

This review is from: Salsoul 12-Inch Gold Masters 1 (Audio CD)

I truly love what Salsoul did for R&B, disco, dance and all it's related genres, but this album does little to introduce us to anything we all haven't already heard (at least not for the purists among us). Mostly it's a compilation of extended versions of songs that you would either already have or are thoroughly familiar with and the ones that you haven't heard before you wouldn't listen to frequently-if ever again. The gold nugget here is Surface's "Falling In Love". This is an extremely hard to find cut and here they provided a previously unreleased, almost overly long 9:29 version (admittedly, this is one version that I can always get to the end of and listen to repeatedly). Otherwise I wouldn't say the album is a waste of money if you don't have the other songs, but the only other nuggets I found here were "Dr. Love" by First Choice and "Let's Celebrate" by Skyy and I have better sounding versions of both of those songs on some of Salsoul's other releases.
