Comment:

You look up “soul” in the dictionary, this is what it’s all about: the gargantuan hits that defined the sound. And here’s why: when David Ruffin sings that he’d give up his [i]pride[/i] and become [i]half a man[/i] to keep his lover, [i]you believe him[/i]. When Aretha sings that she’d give up [i]all her money[/i] for [i]just a little bit[/i] of respect, you know it’s [i]Truth[/i] with a capital [i]“T.”[/i] When Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions sing that the train to Jordan is comin’, you reach for your ticket.
