Midnight Soul

A superb late-night journey through the golden age of American soul music, Midnight Soul brings together an outstanding collection of classic recordings from some of the most influential voices and musicians of the 1960s soul and R&B scene.

Featuring legendary artists including Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Percy Sledge, Solomon Burke, and Ben E. King, this compilation captures the rich emotion, gritty grooves, and timeless songwriting that defined classic Southern soul.

From the explosive energy of I Can’t Turn You Loose and Midnight Hour to the tender balladry of Warm And Tender Love and Goodnight, My Love, Pleasant Dreams, the album moves effortlessly between deep soul, rhythm & blues, funk, and gospel-infused performances. Instrumental highlights from Booker T. & the M.G.'s and Brother Jack McDuff add further groove-filled depth to this excellent collection.

A wonderful compilation for fans of vintage soul, Stax-style rhythm & blues, and classic American groove music.
