Chris Anderton Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 While not strictly falling into what most believe to be crossover I would offer up the arguement that mid tempo 60s is the perfect compliment to crossover soul. At "Dab of Soul" we play some mid tempo 60s as well as a majority of crossover because it seems to fit better than any other genre of soul music....certainly better than mixing crossover and up tempo modern soul which so often gets clumbsyly lumped together in the name of "Moddun"!

Guest Paul Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 "Can soulful 60s soul be called Crossover ?" Good question. According to some people, almost anything can be called "crossover"! I've even seen a few "disco" and "modern soul" records listed as "crossover" records. I've started a thread (...oh no) to explain why I think the "crossover" term just doesn't work: Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
