This pioneering study documents the birth of soul music in America during the 1950s and ’60s when, in response to the black community’s new self-awareness and pride, musicians such as James Brown, The Impressions, Wilson Pickett, King Curtis, Stevie Wonder, and others were discovering in the urban blues, gospel, and r&b a new sound–soul–that expressed fresh musical and social ideals.
