Customer Reviews

Rise and fall of a 1960's Soul label4
Loma was Warner Bros. attempt to get a slice of the Soul market. For four years (1964-1968)Warner had its own "independent" Soul label/subsidary. The only real problem was that Warner never had any kind of strategy or enough funds to give Loma a real chance of making it into the Soul market. Still there is some great music on this 2 CD set, some of the tracks should have been hits, but were not. Not a real surprise when you take in mind what the amount and quality was of the total Soul output in the latter half of the 1960's. Loma does not have its own particular 'sound' like Motown and Stax have their own typical 'sound'. On this set you will find the Supremes like sound of the Appollas on the one hand, but also Deep Southern Soul by Linda Jones and Roy Redmond. It is this variety that makes this a highly recommandable purchase for people who want to broaden thier Soul collections.
