Our Take

Ah, The Roy Milton Collection - a time machine back to an era where music was soulful, unapologetic, and downright groovy. Roy Milton and his Solid Senders have compiled a musical treasure trove from 1945 to 1961 that will have you tapping your toes and swinging your hips in no time.

From the oh-so-smooth vocals to the infectious rhythms, this album is a must-listen for any music lover looking to dive into the rich history of rhythm and blues. Milton's voice is like a warm hug on a rainy day, wrapping you up in nostalgia and comfort as you journey through classic tracks like "R.M. Blues" and "True Blues".

But what truly sets this collection apart is the Solid Senders themselves - a band so tight they could probably play blindfolded and still sound incredible. The interplay between the horns, piano, and drums is a sight (or rather, a sound) to behold, with each member bringing their own unique flair to every song.

Overall, The Roy Milton Collection is a testament to the power of music to transcend time and bring joy to listeners of all ages. So go ahead, put on your dancing shoes and let Roy Milton and the Solid Senders sweep you off your feet - you won't regret it.
