Bobby Womack Gets Best Of, Digital Reissues, Live LP
Who out there likes Bobby Womack? Hey, us too! And, wouldn't you know it, the Cleveland-born soulman is set to issue a brand new best-of. Entitled The Best of Bobby Womack: The Soul Years, the collection is due May 27 on CD and at your standard digital retailers from Capitol/EMI.
So, who out there likes Bobby Womack a whole hell of a lot? If you answered in the affirmative on that count, well, you're probably already counting down the days before the Womack onslaught of May 27.
