Enjoy sweet soul like "Funny Funny Funny" (sample_1), a romantic number with unforgettable lyrics from Seguin, Texas Chicano soul band Henry & The Kasuals, or The Royal Jesters and The Memphis III's "Love Me" (sample_2), a classic that has captivated everyone from lowrider and Chicano soul devotees to psych rock fans. Or take in the psychedelic rock 'n' roll and R&B that sounds like it could have soundtracked some strange American suspense film. The Royal Jesters tracks, combining dizzying sonics with sweet lyrics and melodies alike, really shine within this compilation. (Original Japanese text by AYAM)
