1 SOUL & MOWTOWN

2 SOUL MUSIC A merger of gospel-charged singing, secular subject matter, and funk rhythms. Soul grew out of Fifties rhythm & blues, spurred by Ray Charles' eclectic, decidedly secular late-fifties hits.

3 RHYTHM & BLUES VS. SOUL Soul emphasizes an earthier sound with a strong influence of gospel Soul shouting Call-and-response Emphasis on the piano and drums versus guitars Grit

4 ATLANTIC RECORDS Two iconic record companies that are credited with the birth of the Soul Music Genre. Atlantic Records - Started producing R&B records which were consistently in the Pop Charts Tweedle Dee Lavern Baker C.C. Rider Chuck Willis

5 STAX RECORDS Jerry Wexler steered Atlantic in the direction of Soul Music during the 1960s. Decided to record in the South He found an unusual blend of blues, gospel, and C&W in the racially mixed studio bands. Formed a relationship with Stax Records in Memphis, TN. Stax Records Collaborations Land of 1000 Dances - Wilson Picket The Dock of the Bay Otis Redding Soul Man Sam Moore & Dave Prater

11 Born in Augusta, GA Naturally musical and self taught. Formed the group - The Famous Flames. Please, Please, Please The Famous Flames Brown s style is referred to as Southern Soul While most soul singers developed in the Major cities of the Midwest, Brown remained deeply loyal to his Southern roots.
