Recommend me some soul that's full off.... soul

[soulpope]

Part of "Soul history" hands down .... hard to believe (but true) that the funders of this movie wanted to feature here Gwen Dickey of Rose Royce instead of the "old(er) lady" 🧐 ....

[soulpope]

Roy C „I’ll Never Leave You Lonely“ (Mercury) 1973 …. one of the best Southern Soul singers of the early 70`s, but unfortunately unknown to many ....

[soulpope]

C.L. Blast „I Wanna Get Down“ (Timeless)      1987 …. recorded @ Malaco Studios in 1980 .... C.L Blast seemingly unfazed that the "Disco Wave" flooded Southern Soul .... an excellent album ....

[soulpope]

Tony Joe White @ Muscle Shoals Studios in 1972 .... only good things could happen ....

[soulpope]

Otis Redding "I've Got Dream To Remember (alternate take)" (Stax unreleased) 1967/1992 .... somber alternate take .... and "Big O" laments about "bad dreams" .... dark premonitions .... ?

[soulpope]

Ashford & Simpson "Stay Free (Warner Bros Records) 1979 .... soulful voices meet funky horns .... it was no punishment being young at that time 😇👹 ....

🤔🧐🤓 ....

[soulpope]

Bobby Hatfield "Messin`In Muscle Shoals" (MGM Records) 1971 .... recorded @ Fames Studios and the magic is palpable .... just listen to "Show Me The Sunshine" .... sanctified "Blue Eyed Soul" .....

[soulpope]

Puts on display released (and unreleased !) material recorded for Buddah Records .... top notch song material often written/co-written by Betty Crutcher ....

[soulpope]

Otis Redding "Chained And Bound" (Live At The Whiskey A Go Go / Set 2 / Sunday, April 10, 1966) .... in live setting with his tour band on another planet ....

[soulpope]

V.A "Hall Of FAME Vol. 3" (Kent/Ace) 2014 .....rare and unissued tracks documenting the magic of "Fame Sound" and the glory days of Southern Soul .... indispensable .... btw priceless Cover Photography ....

[soulpope]

Reuben Wilson "Hold On, I`m Coming" (Blue Note unreleased) 1969 ....

[soulpope]

V.A „Losers Win Sometime“ (Westside) 2001 …. superb Southern Soul from Shreveport, Louisiana …. compiled and annotated by the great "Deep Soul Professor" John Ridley …

[soulpope]

Dan Brantley "Keep On Trying" (Hollywood) 1968 .... had this Deep Soul Ballad on my mind, a re-play was obligatory .... this and more outstanding stuff can be hear/obtained via :

"King's Serious Soul Vol. 2: Counting Teardrops" (Kent Records)

Highly recommended compilation ....
