Soul Power Instrumentals, compiled by Time Life, contains 18 prime instrumentals that cover the mid-'60s through the late '70s, almost all of which are essential for anyone with a remote interest in soul and funk.

This disc is a tremendous reminder, featuring Brass Construction's "Movin'," Billy Preston's "Outa-Space," Booker T. & the MG's "Hip Hug-Her," Hugh Masekela's "Grazing in the Grass," Dennis Coffey & the Detroit Guitar Band's "Scorpio," and the Meters' "Cissy Strut."
