Our Take

William Bell’s latest compilation album, "Never Like This Before: The Complete Blue Stax Singles 1961-1968" is a delightful blast from the past that will have you grooving like it’s 1961 all over again.

Bell’s soulful vocals and infectious melodies transport listeners back to the golden age of Stax Records, where music was raw, unapologetic, and oh so groovy. From the catchy hooks of “You Don’t Miss Your Water” to the smooth crooning of “Never Like This Before,” this album is a must-have for any fan of classic soul music.

The standout track on this compilation has to be “Private Number,” a duet with the legendary Judy Clay that oozes with passion and longing. Bell’s emotive vocals paired with Clay’s powerful voice create a dynamic duo that will have you hitting repeat over and over again.

Overall, "Never Like This Before" is a timeless collection of singles that showcase Bell’s immense talent and the magic of Stax Records during its prime. So grab a martini, put on your dancing shoes, and let William Bell serenade you with his soulful tunes – you won’t be disappointed. Trust me, this album is a certified banger that deserves a spot in your music collection.
