MOJO'S 70 GREAT SOUL ALBUMS FROM THE '70S
I love lists, and British music magazine Mojo has some great ones. In the recent issue (Robert Plant cover), they list 70 great soul albums from the '70s. I confess that I haven't yet read it. You see, I like to create a soundtrack for every Mojo list-type feature, and I just finished creating my iTunes playlist. But I wanted to tell you about this issue while it's still available! A lot of the albums are in my collection - everyone should have Stevie Wonder's Innervisions, Marvin Gaye's What's Going On, Sly & The Family Stone's There's A Riot Goin' On and Funkadelic's Maggot Brain. But the list called my attention to artists I haven't listened to much (Donny Hathaway, Johnnie Taylor) and a few who I don't know anything about, or I never even heard of! (Like Shirley Brown, Honey Cone and Willie Hutch.) I love to learn about artists who time has sort of "forgotten," whether they are garage rock, country, blues or soul. So this countdown is a big gift! Thank you Mojo!
