ersh Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 (edited) Anyone check this out yet? I just got it and it's damn sweet. Some reeeeal nice tracks on here. [color:red]Ninety-one tracks deep and five hours long. This may be the desert island comp for funk and soul fans. From the New Orleans ' R&B of Allen Trousie Toussaint," to the funk universalism of Earth, Wind and Fire, this comp touches nearly all the bases. There are seminal jams such as Bay Key's "Soul Finger," but much of this focuses on rare gems from many of soul's biggest names. Perhaps the disk's greatest virtue, though, is the attention paid to lesser known acts, which makes this collection as much a beginning as it is an end. Get it! http://lostin-tyme.blogspot.com/2007/05/va-what-it-is-funky-soul-and-rare.html Edited December 6, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kookycanooky Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 so it took me a few hours to get both parts for disc two...Part 1 contains the entire disc(1-21), and part 2 contains songs 13 - 21. Does this also happen with disc 3 and 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guigsy Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 thanks for the heads up i noticed a similar thing with the first 2... track 17 was part of the tracklisting in part 1, and was the only tune in part 2 - but neither worked, until i downloaded the sendspace link from 'ersh... downloading part 1 of disc 2 now... loved the first disc, thanks for this.

kookycanooky Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 (edited) figured it out...for my computer anyhow:When you have both archives on your computer, open each and you will see the disc split between the two. When you unpack archive 1, it automatically detects and unpacks #2. Look in the destination folder, the full disc will be there even though you only unpacked part 1. Now if you go back and look at the archive for part one, it will show the whole disc, even though, moments ago, it only had half of it. I've never seen this happen before...i'm using WinXP pro with winRAR 3.6hope this helps. for future reference, anyone jumping on this should not unpack .rar's until you have both for any disc.
