A terrific overview of the decade's R&B, with upbeat pop, ballads, funk, and even disco sharing space. The selections emphasize radio hits, there is so much wonderful music here that grousing about particular selections isn't worth getting upset about. Just push "play" and let the tunes bring back memories of the days before hip-hop, sampling, and the reliance on drum machines homogenized and nearly destroyed pure soul music.
