The UK's No.1 independent soul label Expansion Records commences each year with the label's most anticipated collection, "Luxury Soul". The success of the series comes down to the quality of tracks sourced from independent soul music artists, often unsigned or with recordings previously unissued or on limited release elsewhere in physical format. Many tracks have reached No.1 on soul charts over the last 12 months, but never released physically on CD before. Names include Will Downing, Con Funk Shun, Narada Michael Walden, Lynn Davis (former lead with George Duke), Carol Riddick (former Motown artist), Mike Lindup (of Level 42), Paulette McWilliams (original lead singer with Rufus) Natalie Duncan (Incognito) with exclusive tracks here by The Requestors featuring Vivienne McKone, R. Cory Johnson, Robert Gee and new artist Steven Thad. Also some of the biggest songs of past 12 months by Ronnie Herel & Kenny Thomas, Stokes & Machine, Brian Power with Cornell CC Carter and many more. Release to coincide with the Luxury Soul Weekender in Blackpool, January 2024 and includes tracks by three artists performing live at the event - Shaila Prospere, Natasha Watts and Hil St Soul.
