Intro to Soul Compilation
 
Would anyone be interested in this if I did one? A nice mix of essential Soul tracks plus a few lesser known ones to let peple know what they can expect from this great field of music?

It would be most appreciated I'm sure, but we have a thread for things like intro comps.

You wouldn't mind if it was moved there would you?

Or you could start a journal in here Toe...Members Journal - Music Banter

Akira 07-30-2009 02:41 PM

Was just going to do a few compilations of mixed artists, rather than write about them so I don't think a journal would be worth it.

jackhammer 07-30-2009 05:57 PM

I like my Soul music but have gaps for sure. I would be interested to hear a comp.

333 07-30-2009 06:06 PM

I'm down for it. Just tell me where you guys are moving this bitch.

Schizotypic 07-30-2009 06:20 PM

I'm definitely down for this too, actually I've been wanting something like this for a while now.

Piss Me Off 07-30-2009 06:22 PM

I'm big on my soul these days so i'm sure i'll be sniffing anything out.

jackhammer 07-30-2009 06:29 PM

Never forget the immortal JH Funk comps though please!

Akira 07-30-2009 06:32 PM

This would only be a basic intro, so if you're remotely familiar with it then I wouldn't be surprised if ya knew all tracks, not gonna be much to discover for non-beginners.

333 07-30-2009 06:33 PM

Nonetheless, let's see whatcha got.

morgos 07-30-2009 07:39 PM

I'm not new to soul music, but I'd definitely download and listen to it if you did make a comp.

FaSho 07-30-2009 09:59 PM

I could use a very basic intro comp as well. Looking forward to it already.

gunnels 07-30-2009 11:08 PM

I'd download that.
I'd download that hard.

Ha, I thought that may be one that most haven't heard, if any.

Cool, let me know which tracks you like, if any.

Akira 08-02-2009 01:24 PM

If anyone is wondering about the lovely cheesy cover, it's from a fake commercial in Coming to America

Looking at this list...I think I just had a soul-gasm.

I'll definitely be downloading this. Looks like I only have about half the songs on here already.

Yeah, pretty much common stuff here, but the aim is an intro and all the artists have at least one good soul album for anyone interested in delving deeper.

Sexual chocolate.

The barber is my favourite! got it on my HD now mate. I have quite a few tracks and massive kudos for the Al Green Track but it's still worth a listen for sure.

Akira 08-02-2009 07:01 PM

For some reason, one of my fave lines from it is 'his momma called him Clay, I'mma call him Clay'

Piss Me Off 08-04-2009 09:34 AM

Man, chunky comp. Could tell the list would be good straight from the first track though! Downloading now.

Haha, yeah, and that's after cutting a load from the initial list I had.

Schizotypic 08-06-2009 01:37 PM

I've been listening to this thing every time I go anywhere in my car, and I have to say it's amazing driving music. No matter what mood I'm in it for some reason always makes me feel better. At first all the songs blended together, like it was an instrumental compilation, but as I passively listened more each individual song began to gain it's own personal definition. Lyrically I only know about the first six songs, which isn't much. It was enough, however, for me to notice how corny the lyrics are. Not that they're about corny things, it just feels like something my mom would listen to. In fact, my mom was dancing in my car to it. =/ Unfortunately now we have some similarity in tastes, but I never come around to Barbra Streisand.

Something tells me this isn't like amazing music, like it wouldn't compare much up against some of my favorite albums... but damnit I've been choosing this compil. over an opportunity to listen to those albums for days straight now. I just have a soft spot for this shit.

So, anyway, thanks for making the compilation. I really am thoroughly enjoying it, and, in fact, I even burned myself a two disk CD of it so I'll have it on me just for whenever. I'm currently getting the studio stuff good old Otis put out while he was alive, and hopefully that holds up just as well. I just hope this doesn't become an addiction.

Son of JayJamJah 08-06-2009 02:23 PM

Fantastic work on a basic but thorough soul compilation, sorry I've overlooked it for so long!
