Customer Rating:      Summary: MAKES AN OLD WHITE BOY WANNA DANCE !!!! Comment: This album is the s**t !!! Makes ya feel all warm and groovy, and wanna git up and DANCE !!! Recommend highly.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Double Dynamite Comment: If you are a true fan of Memphis soul music and especially a fan of the Stax label, this is a must
have. The CD has all the songs that received "air-play"
during Sam and Dave's heydey and some that I had never heard but are testaments to the Stax sound and production values. Listen to "Goodnight Baby". I'm a hardcore OG but
the song gives me chills!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Never received the item Comment: I would love to review the item I ordered, but I never received it, and I have never received a refund!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Nice Comment: 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.
Customer Rating:      Summary: AND So Much More Comment: 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.

Editorial Reviews:

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. --Robert Gordon
