The Soft! The Creamy! The Velvety! Part 4: Louis Price

Photobucket


Now, this voice is one of the most creamy voices ever. He was once singing with my favorites The Temptations -- but in my opinion, he was not really the voice one would expect to hear in a Temptations song. Although I dare say that no other version of A Song For You ever comes close to the one by Louis.
I wonder, whether I'll ever be able to listen only once to this rendition of the song. I usually re-play it at least three times in a row.

Ladies and gentlemen! Here's the best rendition of a beautiful, beautiful song!

Arthur Conley: "Sweet Soul Music", "Burning Fire"

Hier dreht sich nun mal alles um Soul Musik. Deshalb kommt heute auch Arthur Conley zu Wort: "Do you like good music? ..."Yeah. Yeahhhh!" Und so geht's mit Sweet Soul Music ins weekend.

Arthur Conley hat m. E. nie die Beachtung gefunden, die er eigentlich verdient haette. Seine Stimme erinnert sehr an die von Sam Cooke.  Arthur hoert sich weniger geschliffen und poliert an als Sam -- "souliger" eben. Das gefaellt mir an ihm.
