The Lounge Legends in SoulCity

The LoungLegends in Soulcity 
is an unique LL sampler 
with massive soulhits performed by the Masters of Lounge

Soul music is a music genre originating in the United States combining elements of gospel music and rhythm and blues.According to theRock and Roll Hall of Fame, soul is "music that arose out of the black experience in America through the transmutation of gospel and rhythm & blues into a form of funky, secular testifying." Catchy rhythms, stressed by handclaps and extemporaneous body moves, are an important feature of soul music. Other characteristics are a call and response between the soloist and the chorus, and an especially tense vocal sound. The genre also occasionally uses improvisational additions, twirls and auxiliary sounds.

The Lounge Legend Collection

Max Greger(1926) started his career in 1948 when he formed his first band. That's 62 years ago and since then he has recorded a numerous amount of songs and still does. There already is a compilation of him on this blog, but I thought it wasn't a bad idea to make another one. So here it is and I hope you will like it.
