Some great choices so far, but if I had to go for just one it would be James Carr's "Forgetting You". That adlibbed, on the verge of manic ending gets me...
i'm amazed by your choice, peter...simply because i'm in agreement...of all the possibilities, for me, it comes down to this: Â it's my favorite track by my...
I'm going to nominate Kim Tolliver's "Where Were You" on Rojac. Paul 2009/11/12 soulbrotherbarry <Barry.soulbrother.fowden@...> ... -- Paul Williams ...
Thanks for your answer... I'll try to get in touch with him (although I am not very comfortable with the fact that some of his CDs features material very...
I'd third the Johnny Truitt. But coming in a close second is Kip Anderson's "I Went Off and Cried." (Just realized that's 2 from Excello.) Ryan ...

If I was to introduce someone who has never heard of deep soul to the genre with a single tune, I'd probably go to the obvious : James Carr's Kard end of the...
Some nice songs are selected so far. I will listen to all of them in the coming hours/days. But when it comes down to THE song that defines deep soul, to me...
I do love that song but to me the bluesy elements of it preclude it from being the archetypal "deep soul" song ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...
Kevin, Also on the P-Vine Excello Soul Story 2CD set (along with 7 other Truitt tracks). And available from Sir Shambling, I believe. Ryan ... [Non-text...

Eli, Yes Ruby Johnson has more bluesy elements than most of the other selections. But some of the other selections have too many 'country' elements (Solomon...
Seems like people are dissecting elements on what makes a great deepie. Does The Falcons' I Found A Love make the muster? It doesn't get much deeper than that....
To me, it doesn't get much deeper than Bettye's 'Choices'... I just got back from a Texas road trip where the car radio played George's daughter Georgette's...
Cies, The late Dave Godin originally coined the term "deep soul" to describe records which were vocally intense and moving; the word "minimalistic" never...
I agree Kevin, it doesn't get much deeper than that for me either. In fact I can recall the first time I heard "I Found A Love" and the importent part it...
Mike, It's not so much about the definition what is 'deep soul, the original question raised by Pete (or at least my own interpretation of that question) was...
... Well, Charly comped his iffy Seventy-Seven recordings (on an eighties anthology called MELLOW FELLOW), but as far as the Giant, Palos, or even Duke sides,...
Yes Cies, I can see where you're coming from. Since Dave Godin first coined the phrase to describe soul music of, shall we say, a more serious nature, our...
Kevin, Good shout as what more do you want when you have Wilson Pickett on lead vocals & Robert Ward on guitar. “Confessin’” by Tyrone Davis is also a...
