All top notch Soul singers. Hard to choose.

Smokey Robinson - The best songwriter of the four.
'The Tracks Of My Tears', being my favourite.

Sam Cooke - His greatest record was 'A Change Is Gonna Come' (the flip side to the single 'Shake') released after his death.

Marvin Gaye - 'Lets Get It On'.
Also his duets with Tammy Terrell, 'Aint No Mountain High Enough', 'Your Precious Love', 'Your All I Need To Get By'.

Otis Redding - Only 26 when he died and yet his songs sound like they came from a man with so much more life experience!
Dont know where to start! A man with real Soul, his records full of emotion.
Hard to believe he only ever had one top twenty hit with 'Dock Of The Bay'
