CD Reviews

Great soul, little gospel
J. Cantor | 02/21/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is, as one would expect from Soul Jazz, a top flight compilation of 60's and 70's soul music. Many of the artists here have/had close connections with gospel music, and its influence can be heard to greater and lesser degrees in these tracks. But there is little actual gospel here and God barely gets a look-in. A more accurate title would have been Gospel Soul. For some real "soul" gospel, listen to Aretha Franklin's Amazing Grace. Or get a sense of this genre's progression over time in Rhino's excellent compilation: Testify! The Gospel Box."
