'Windy City Workout' is the first ever legitimate CD release devoted entirely to Cash's recordings. Disc 1 opens with his only album release 'Twine Time' (named after his biggest hit), and continues into Disc 2 with all of his single releases in chronological order.

This deluxe memorabilia-laden package features notes from the eminent Chicago blues and soul expert Robert Pruter, and the tracklisting denotes all the chart placings he secured on America's pop and R&B charts.

Cash's recordings for Mar-V-Lus, Toddlin' Town, Seventy-Seven and Sound Stage Seven are all included.

Also featured are three tracks which only ever appeared on the now ultra-rare Toddlin' Town LP, Wilson Pickett's 'Funky Broadway' and two Arthur Conley hits, 'Funky Street' and 'People Sure Act Funny'.

Dances with instructions include The Twine, The Boo Ga Loo, The Bump, The Barracuda, The Boston Monkey, The Penguin, The Freeze, The Charge, The Popcorn and, second only to The Twine, The Ali Shuffle, a dance which Alvin dedicated to Mohammed Ali.

Alvin Cash passed away in 1999 but his music still resonates on today's soul scene, as a quick visit to YouTube will attest.

This carefully compiled 2CD set is the first comprehensive retrospective of his work and is testimony to the power of dance music; get up and get down is all you can really do to this collection.
