Tobacco Road Records is proud to present 16 Brand New Classics. These songs were meticulously handpicked and included on this CD because we truly feel each of them, in their own individual way, are tomorrow's classics. When we began looking for songs to compile for this Carolina Soul Collection, we set our sights on the future. There is an abundance of  tried and true artists with the proven songs out there, but what about the rest. Sure, there are some well-known artists on this compilation, but the overall goal of this project was to bring to the forefront a group of artists that shows the depth of talent that is waiting to be heard in this industry. Contained on this CD are 16 solid artists with the promise of a bright future, and some of them, yes, may be lesser known , or that is until now. On this compilation, Tobacco Road Records is presenting you with eight original tunes, all but one are first time recordings. The remaining eight songs are magical remakes, done in the artists own signature style. Unlike many covers, these remakes are truly giving new life to some songs worth hearing again. As you listen, we think you too will soon realize there are hidden gems right here in this one collection, waiting to be discovered. Enjoy! 1. Greatest Love Ever Known - Steve Owens 2.
