An impossible task for sure. Why don’t you just ask me which one of my children I love the most? Anyway, I’ll give it a shot. Just going to the top of my music files and grabbing a few I haven’t seen mentioned already here’s what I came up with:

Al Green - Here I Am Baby

Aretha Franklin- The House That Jack Built

Barbara George - I Know (You Don’t Love Me No More)

Ben E. King -I Who Have Nothing

Bobby Rush - I Ain’t Studdin’ You If you want to have a :eek: time, just check out some of Bobby Rush’s live videos. Priceless!

Got hundreds more. Man, I love my soul music.
(Damn! The first one I put up is a repeat from the previous post. Headsmack!)

If you can find it, check out Soul Survivor, it’s a sort of documentary on Stax in Memphis. Sam Moore does “When Something’s Wrong With My Baby” live and kills it. A near perfect performance.
