Funky Delicacies proudly unveils a three-LP series of rare, unreissued and never before released rock/funk/blues/soul gems from Rock & Roll Hall of Famer IKE TURNER. A BLACK MAN’S SOUL, available for the first time in over thirty years, offers funk-soaked instrumentals with punchy horns and strong vocals from the Kings of Rhythm as well as tasty keyboard/guitar work from Ike himself. From the playful remake of the Mar-Keys’ “Philly Dog” and the Gospel-inspired “Freedom Sound” to the drum-driven “Funky Mule” & New Orleans-flavored “Up Hard,” Ike & the Kings takes a journey through the back-bone of rock & soul music with swagger & energy.
This is art in the truest sense of the word.-Where Y'At Magazine May 2003
“…Unarguably at the top of Ike Turner’s long list of fine accomplishments; an under appreciated, undervalued and undeniably funky soul gift…monumental…dynamite.” –Wax Poetics
