Soul Box is the third studio album by American saxophonist Grover Washington Jr. The project was originally divided in two LPs, both released in 1973 on Kudu Records with quite identical covers as Soul Box Vol. 1 (KU-12) and Soul Box Vol. 2 (KU-13), then issued as a 2-LP set as KUX-1213. Both albums were recorded during March 1973 with the same personnel. With the rising of CD's Soul Box Vol. 1 & Soul Box Vol. 2 were reissued on CD by Motown in the early 1990s. Unfortunately Vol. 2 was mastered incorrectly with a totally wrong track separation. Original tracks #1 + #2 were combined into 1 single track of 17 minutes, track #3 was cut as track #2 and track #4 was cut as track #3. Subsequently a totally wrong printing on the CD and the back cover of the CD was performed: The CD contained & listed only 3 tracks. The printed titles were not matching the corresponding tracks and were stated with wrong durations, not matching the original songs of the LP. It took until 2008, when the two volumes were released on one CD by Verve/GRP Records to get the tracks right again with their track separations and title durations back to the original recordings from the Kudu LP's.
