ATLANTIC RHYTHM AND BLUES, 1947 - 1974. 7 Volume, 14 DISC SET. The complete set in great condition!
This set was released in 1984 and purchased by the previous owner around that time.
The covers are works of art all on their own, which are double sided booklets containing 2 discs each. All covers are in great condition and all discs passed visual inspection. The discs played beautifully during testing.
Each two sided folding cardboard cover comes in its own thick transparent plastic dust jacket.
Each volume cover opens out in to a two page spread with the history and story of the period explored by that volume.

To quote one glowing review:
Atlantic Records has one of the richest, most luminous recorded archives in the history of American music.
Like any box set worth the price of admission, it should illuminate. Not just regurgitate the hits, but serve-up worthy, but largely-unknown, nuggets. It should tell a story. And this does.
From Tommy Ridgley's "Jam Up" to the Persuaders' "Fine Line Between Love And Hate" to well-known hits by Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Otis Redding, the Spinners and LaVern Baker, this is no-less than a music appreciation course. A history of rhythm and blues' fascinating transformation into soul.
The words 'classic' and 'absolutely essential' genuinely apply to this set. Aside from food, water and oxygen, it doesn't get any more essential than this.
Or put another way, I'd marry--sight unseen--any woman with this in her collection. It (and she, no doubt) are that good.
