Holy shit. I forgot how incredible Sir Shambling's Deep Soul Heaven is. If you haven't been there, and you're into soul music of the slow and heartfelt variety, budget some time, a lot of it. There's so much obscure soul represented, with background info and in many cases mp3s, that you might as well bookmark it. Think I'm kidding? Take a look at his artist index here. See what I mean? Holy shit, right?
One of his recent posts is about Caribbean soul music, and it features a few artists you might know from their reggae output. But this is soul music, and hearing Joe Higgs, the Wailers, the Maytals, Alton Ellis and others singing soul back-to-back will remind you that there were a lot of quality pipes in reggae.
