You can see how soul is born. It means something. Thanks for posting. Ed 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Amsterdam Russ Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 Yes, exactly so. The only difference between gospel music and soul music is the lack of the 'godly' element in the latter. Otherwise they're one and the same. Thanks a lot for giving my mix a listen - that's really appreciated. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
