    Um, I’m a little upset Texas’ own Bobby Blue Bland didn’t get a mention (If You Got a Heart). Maybe my favorite female vocalist Etta James was already on the list (All I could do is Cry). If Curtis Mayfield (Hard to Believe) finds out he doesn’t make the soul playlist on Twangville, he and James Brown (This is a Man’s World) will freak out, funny yet ool dancing would ensue. Oh, and for your own sake take somebodies version of “When a Man Loves a Woman” (Percy Sledge will work).

    And my personal favorite soul song ever…
    Al Green’s “Love and Happiness”

    Love the Soul Music

    You better believe Etta’s already on the list. And certainly your other suggestions deserve a chance. Its gonna be hard to make cuts.
