In 1964, soul music provided a much-needed rebuff to The Beatles' seemingly unstoppable incursion into the American music scene. This smartly assembled volume of soul classics from 1964 does an admirable job at conveying the astounding power and wide-ranging stylistic diversity of soul from this era and includes raucous numbers like James Brown's incomparable "Out of Sight," chart-topping group sounds from The Temptations, and O.V. Wright's definitive reading of the Southern Soul standard "That's How Strong My Love Is".
