North American black music is one of the most powerful, fastest, and most resilient engines in popular music. For something like fifty years, soul, rythm and blues and funk have constantly nurtured and nurtured the creativity and inspiration of singers, artists and songwriters around the world although, only in the recent decade, has wanted musical history recognize that it is so.
This selection is an interesting collection of some of the best voices and songs of the Soul Era, compiled by Dro in 1992, as a continuation of his wonderful Soul Classics (1991) edition, songs ripped from the original edition on LPs.
With one foot in the church, another in the streets of the ghetto, and a name that comes from jazz, soul is a genre that signifies richness, versatility and variety. Sentimental, avant-garde, vindictive, aggressive, sensual, traditional, danceable: soul music is here to stay.
