Press reviews:
Stuttgarter Zeitung "The Sweet
Soul Music Revue brings its audiences in Stuttgart's Theaterhaus
repeatedly to its feet .... an homage to the great epoch
of Soul".
Esslinger Zeitung "The Sweet Soul Music Revue doesn't
just pay respect by bowing to the great artists of Soul, it entertains and informs
with short stories and anecdotes about the names and the times, that made the
genre Soul so unforgettable. With film-clips and images of the `60`s it underlines
and defines the importance of black popular music in the USA, in a socio-political
context. When cultural history is presented in such an entertaining manner, then
please more of the same".
Haller Kreisblatt "The end of the festival was brought
to an explosive finale with the Sweet Soul Music Revue. It was, as if all the
legendary stars had come to Halle in person .... and turned the jubilant applauding
audience of all ages into non-stop dancers".
Mannheimer Morgen "The Sweet Soul Music Revue`s opened
in Mannheim's Capitol to a sold-out
audience and was a huge success. It was indeed the promised Gala of musical feeling,
full of the greatest chart-hits out of the hit-factories, Motown, Stax and Atlantic
Records".
