The Soul Years
The best of a true soul survivor…
Bobby Womack was a major soul superstar throughout the 70’s with songs such as ‘Across 110th Street’, ‘California Dreamin’’, ‘Woman’s Gotta Have It’, ‘Harry Hippie’ and many more.
The Best Of Bobby Womack gathers together 22 digitally re-mastered tracks, including his chart hits and classic tracks and is released on 26 May.
Since Womack began his musical career as a child in the early 1950s, he has been one of American music’s true innovators, blending the styles of traditional gospel and soul with funk and R&B as an architect of the modern soul genre.
In addition to the physical and digital release of ‘The Best Of Bobby Womack: The Soul Years’, seven original Womack albums will be made available, as well as a newly-discovered recording of a 1972 concert at New York’s Apollo Theater.
Still recording and performing at the age of 64, Bobby Womack is a true soul survivor, a musical torchbearer of life’s trials and hardships.
“As long as I've got that breath and my God-given talent, every time someone thinks of soul music, they'll remember me and say, ‘That's one motherf*cker who wouldn't die.” Bobby Womack
