Soul Music........Help????

[bipbop13]

Oh, it's just me again. My hard drive is already full with all the other genres that I have to listen to, but I thought I'd get a head start with asking for help on this. I already have a folder for funk. And I know there is some crossover, so I'll skip James Brown & Sly and The Family Stone as I've already put them in with my funk artists. Let me tell you, some funk comes REALLY close to disco at some points. Anyway, back to the matter at hand. Asking you kind people for suggestions for soul music artists. I haven't started at all yet, and I do think this will be my last "genre music folder", as other types of music besides most of the ones I've been working on here I'm "expert" at. So fire away, and let's see who I've been missing all these years in the realm of soul!
