Various Artists: Groove & Grind: Rare Soul 1963 - '73
by Chris M. Slawecki
We call it “soul music" for a reason: Because from Ray Charles grooving on “America the Beautiful" to Maxwell gently hammering out his steps to “Ascension," the best soul music hits deep in our ears, our minds and our hearts.
