Best known for their 1972 hit, Everybody Plays the Fool (included here), the smooth, soulful Main Ingredient enjoyed a long career that began in 1959 under the name the Poets. Their biggest hit period would be for RCA from 1970 to 1976, and the best from that era has been digitally collected here. Includes the big hits Happiness Is Just Around the Bend; Just Don't Want to Be Lonely; Rolling Down a Mountainside; Spinning Around; I'm So Proud; Shame on the World, and more.

All the MI's hits are here, though the fidelity is thin in some spots. Some of RCA's engineers were tightwads on the consoles in those days. Still, It's an important disc for the music library. Get it while it's still available!

A Piece of History
What can you say about a group that withstood the test of time? As a little girl I can remember hearing their hits from my fathers 8 track tape player. Songs like, I Just Don't Want To Be Lonely and Rolling Down A Mountainside. Each time I hear these songs, they transport me to a happier time, to a simpler time when everything was fun and music still had meaning. Here's to you Main Ingredient. Thank you for giving us your best!

I loved it.
I've always loved those oldies. Of course the Main Ingredients were one of my favorite singing groups. The CD met my expections. Also where else can you buy these CD? You sure can not find them in stores.

Good compilation but... Some great hits are missing!
If you go crazy for 70s Soul music, this CD is a good beginning for you. However, if you would like to appreciate the excellency of The Main Ingredient as one of the best Soul groups of the 70s, try to get their "Euphrates River" album (actually available in an expensive Japanese edition.) If you are willing to pay the sticker price for it, I assure you won't be dissapointed!

Das Funk und Soul Trio
Hier muss man sagen sehr guter schneller Funk und sehr guter langsamer Soul, der gefühlvoll rüber kommt! Einige der wenigen Bands, die ihr Handwerk auf diesem Gebiet verstehen. Auch sie kann man immer noch hören. Eine hervorragende Auswahl an Liedern auf dieser CD in der Klasse bewiesen wird. Musik die unter die Haut geht! Super, Klasse und TopMfG Insider
