[Soul] Post your Soul playlists in here!

Hey guys,

 

I wanted to share some of my Soul playlists with you and invite you to add yours too.

 

So what is Soul music? Here's a good description i found on about.com: 

 

Soul music is a combination of R&B and gospel and began in the late 1950s in the United States. Soul diffirentiates from R&B due to its greater emphasis on vocalists and its merging of religious and secular themes.

The 1950s recordings of Sam Cooke, Ray Charles and James Brown are commonly considered the beginnings of soul music.

 

I would like to keep this thread Soul only. I have 2 playlists whihc i really like but one is Soul and Blues, the other is Soul and Jazz. I will not post those here, but maybe in another thread.

 

Here are mine and i'm looking forward to yours. Enjoy!

Lovely colletcions! 
I spread mine with a mashup of soul and "love" music. It's funny to listen during last part of the day or for "enjoying moment". I hope you like it. Cheers!

Very cool stuff on these playlists. I'd love y'all to check out this new song (although you'd swear it was from the '70s) by a band I manage, Greg Humphreys Electric Trio. Add it to your playlists and help spread the word!  Thanks.

Here is the first of 4 Soul Playlists for you delectation.

 

This is gloriously broad with both well known classics and obscurities. Opening with the beautiful a cappella of Nina Simone and closing with the ginormous slab of cheese that is Deodato's Also Sprach Zarathustra.

This is a straight up Soul list, no subgenres, I'm not trying to be obscure, just that sweet soul music.
