Across 110th Street Deluxe 2CD edition

THREE ORIGINAL HIT ALBUMS IN ONE DELUXE 2CD DIGIBOOK PACKAGE One of the few surviving links to the pre-Soul/R&B era, Bobby Womack - who was originally discovered as a teenager singing Gospel music by the late Sam Cooke - nowadays enjoys full-blown “Living Legend” status. Blessed with one of the warmest, most readilyidentifiable voices in Soul music, he carved out his reputation with a series of classic albums and singles in the early 70s, re-emerging again in the 80s with his career masterpieces, The Poet and The Poet II, the latter achieving platinum status in Europe alone. This unique package concentrates on the early 70s, and is built around the iconic, awardwinning original soundtrack to Across 110th Street (1972), the critically-acclaimed - albeit violent, bloodthirsty and deeply disturbing - Blaxploitation movie which starred Anthony Quinn, Yaphet Kotto and Anthony Franciosa. Perhaps Womack’s most celebrated album, this compelling OST remains the most important soundtrack of the genre, the powerful title song later featuring heavily in both Quentin Tarantino’s 1997 homage to Blaxploitation, Jackie Brown, and Ridley Scott’s 2007 opus, American Gangster. The bonus disc features Womack’s two subsequent LPs, Facts Of Life (1973) and Looking For A Love Again (1974), which were, at that stage of his career, his biggest selling albums.
