& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Orchestral Renditions Of Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson, The Supremes, The Temptations & amp; More! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;A Symphony of Soul is a new album featuring tracks from the storied Motown catalog reimagined with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Produced by the Grammy-winning Brian Rawling (Cher, One Direction, Rod Stewart), the 11-track set gives a new dimension to some of Motown's best-loved songs. The new renditions use the original vocal performances by many of the label's most celebrated
artists, including & lt;strong & gt;the Supremes, the Four Tops, the Temptations, & lt;/strong & gt; and & lt;strong & gt;Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Two tracks also feature newly recorded vocals by distinguished British soul stars & lt;strong & gt;Mica Paris, & lt;/strong & gt; who accompanies & lt;strong & gt;Jimmy Ruffin & lt;/strong & gt; on his 1966 classic & quot;What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted, & quot; and & lt;strong & gt;Beverley Knight, & lt;/strong & gt; who sings alongside & lt;strong & gt;Marvin Gaye & lt;/strong & gt; on his 1969 version of & quot;Abraham, Martin & amp; John. & quot;
& lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;The album was recorded with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at Mark Knopfler's British Grove Studios in west London. A Symphony of Soul complements the musicality of the songs with an orchestral backdrop set against the original vocal stems and parts,
typically recorded on a mere four tracks compared to the almost limitless number available in modern recording. The treatments thus add a new layer to these timeless songs while remaining faithful to the beauty of the originals. & lt;/p & gt;

& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Staples's New Eponymous Album On Vinyl LP!
& lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Vince Staples has returned with his highly anticipated new LP, a self-titled affair that is said to be his most personal to date. The Long Beach-born rapper has been teasing new music for some time, but the new album has finally seen the light of day
via Blacksmith Recordings / Motown Records. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;With only one guest throughout the entire LP - Foushe & amp;#233; on & quot;TAKE ME HOME & quot; - Vince centers the story on his come up from Odd Future affiliate to new voice of the West Coast. The entire album is produced by Kenny Beats, giving the project a cohesive, reliable
sound that Staples has ample room to explore over. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Staples confirmed when he released the first single, & quot;LAW OF AVERAGES, & quot; that the 10-track LP would delve into both Staples's upbringing in Long Beach and his psyche as he learns to cope with his yesterdays and strides toward new tomorrows, picking others
up along the way. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;In conjunction with that initial announcement, Staples released the official music video for the track, directed by Kid. Studio. Set against a montage of voyeuristic moments in Long Beach, CA, the cinematic visual features imagery that embodies black
joy and highlights the beauty within the fringes. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Of the new LP, Staples says, & quot; & lt;strong & gt;It really gives much more information about me that wasn't out there before. That's why I went with that title. I feel like I've been trying to tell the same story. As you go on in life, your point of view changes. This is another take on myself that I might not have had before. & lt;/strong & gt; & quot; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & quot; & lt;strong & gt;I'm a mind more than I am an entertainer to a lot of people & lt;/strong & gt;, & quot; Staples says, adding, & quot; & lt;strong & gt;I appreciate that my fanbase is willing to go on this ride with me. I'm ready to diversify what we're doing and see how we affect the world. & lt;/strong & gt; & quot; That trip has begun with
the recent announcement of his new graphic novel, Limbo Beach. & lt;/p & gt;

& lt;p & gt;Originally released in 1971, What's Going On is widely considered to be Marvin Gaye's master work. A social commentary on American life that remains poignant 30 + years later, Berry Gordy was initially dead set against its release, calling the single
& quot;uncommercial & quot;. Thankfully, the Motown execs eventually relented and the song soon became a huge hit, going down in history as one of the greatest R & amp;B songs of all time. & lt;/p & gt;
