Comment:

Soul music doesn't just absorb and reflect love, transforming the strongest of emotions into timeless melody — soul music is love. Listen to any great soul singer, and every note contains the distilled essence of passion, pain and deep human connection that forms the experience we label with that potent four-letter word. Here, the greatest of soul singers create the gold standard for Soulful Love Songs, opening up with the majestic Percy Sledge and his 1966 stunner "When a Man Loves a Woman" (featuring the incredible keys of Spooner Oldham), and Aretha Franklin's 1967 gem, "(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman." Prince becomes a king under the covers, and Smokey gets smoochy, in Next Steps.
