Product Description:
Some of the baddest groups around came out of the
Motor City, and, lung for lung, The Dynamics could blow with the best of them. Like the Temptations, each member of The Dynamics can step up to the mic and lay down a lead in his own style sweet, rough, beggin or screamin. The Dynamics could have stayed in Detroit and laid down their tracks on the Hitsville assembly line of soul, but instead they did something only the Queen of Soul herself dared before: They took their city-slick sound down South for some Memphis muscle. The result is First Landing, a soulful summit between R&B s two warring lands. Produced by Tommy Cogbill & Chips Moman (Elvis Presley,Neil Diamond, The Box Tops, Waylon Jennings and more) and backed by the same musicians who put down the groove behind the biggest hits by Aretha Franklin, Wilson Pickett and dozens of others, this is as good as soul music is gonna get.

Rating : - Northern Soul With Sass
My favorite album of the year, hands down.

From the get-outta-your-chair opener, "I Don't Want Nobody To Lead Me On" to the sweel soul ballad of "Ice Cream Song" to the killer closer "Muder in the First Degree," The Dynamics bring the best of Detroit & Memphis 60's soul to the table. It is an honest mystery why this wasn't bigger in '69. A must-have for fans of Northern soul, 60's R&B, Detroit music, & supreme grooves.
