Soul muisic is a popular muisic genre that oreeginatit in African-American commonties throuoot the Unitit States in the late 1950s an early 1960s.[2] Catchy rhythms, stressed bi haundclaps an extemporaneous bouk muivements, are an important hawmark o soul. Ither chairacteristics are a caw an repone atween the lead an backin vocalists, an inspecially tense vocal soond, an occasional improvisational addeetions, twirls, an auxiliary soonds. Soul muisic is kent fur reflectin African-American identity an stressin the importance o African-American cultur.
Soul haes its ruits in African-American gospel muisic an rhythm an blues,[3] an primarily combines elements o gospel, R&B an jazz.[4] The genre emergit frae the pouer struggle tae increase black Americans' awareness o thair African auncestry, as a newfoond consciousness led tae the creation o muisic that boastit pride in bein black.

History
[eedit | edit soorce]Oreegins
[eedit | edit soorce]
Soul muisic haes its ruits in tradeetional African-American gospel muisic an rhythm an blues an as the hybridisation o thair respective religious an secular styles – in baith leerical content an instrumentation – that begoud in the 1950s. The term "soul" haed been uised amang African-American muisickers tae emphasise the feelin o bein an African American in the Unitit States. Accordin tae muisicologist Barry Hansen,
Thou this hybrid produced a clutch o hits in the R&B mercat in the early 1950s, anly the maist adventurous white fans felt its impact at the time; the rest haed tae wait fur the comin o soul muisic in the 1960s tae feel the rush o rock an roll sung gospel-style.

Accordin tae AllMusic, "Soul muisic wis the result o the urbanisation an commercialisation o rhythm an blues in the '60s."[9] The phrase "soul muisic" itsel, referrin tae gospel-style muisic wi secular leerics, wis furst attestit in 1961.[10] The term "soul" in African-American parlance haes connotations o African-American pride an cultur. Gospel groups in the 1940s an '50s occasionally uised the term as pairt o thair names. The jazz style that oreeginatit frae gospel becam kent as soul jazz. As sangsters an arrangers begoud uisin techniques frae baith gospel an soul jazz in African-American popular muisic durin the 1960s, soul muisic gradually functioned as an umberellae term fur African-American popular muisic at the time.[11]

Accordin tae the Acoustic Muisic Organisation, the "furst clear evidence o soul muisic shaws up wi the "5" Royales, an ex-gospel group that turned tae R&B an in Faye Adams, whase "Shake A Hand" becomes an R&B staundard".[12]
Important innovators whase recordins in the 1950s contreibutit tae the emergence o soul muisic includit Clyde McPhatter, Hank Ballard, an Etta James. Ray Charles is aften citit as popularisin the soul muisic genre wi his series o hits, stairtin wi 1954's "I Got a Woman". Sangster Bobby Womack said, "Ray wis the genius. He turned the warld ontae soul muisic." Charles wis appen in acknawledgin the influence o Pilgrim Travelers vocalist Jesse Whitaker on his singin style.
Little Richard, wha inspired Otis Redding, an James Brown baith wur equally influential. Brown wis nicknamed the "Godfaither o Soul Muisic",[8] an Richard proclaimed himsel as the "Keeng o Rockin' an Rollin', Rhythm an Blues Soulin'", acause his muisic embodied elements o aw three, an syne he inspired airtists in aw three genre.
Sam Cooke an Jackie Wilson are aften acknawledgit as soul forefaithers an aa. Cooke becam popular as the lead sangster o the gospel group the Soul Stirrers, afore controversially muivin intae secular muisic. His recordin o "You Send Me" in 1957 launched a successfu pop muisic career. Furthermair, his 1962 recordin o "Bring It On Home to Me" haes been descrieved as "perhaps the furst record tae define the soul experience". Jackie Wilson, a contemporary o baith Cooke an James Brown, achieved crossower success an aa, inspecially wi his 1957 hit "Reet Petite".[13] He even wis pairticulairly influential fur his dramatic delivery an performances.
1960s
[eedit | edit soorce]
Hauf-marrae-wife duo Ike & Tina Turner emergit as "leadin exponents" o soul muisic in the 1960s.[14] Thair debut single "A Fool in Love" crossed ower tae the pop chairts in 1960. Thay earnt a Grammy nomination fur thair sang "It's Gonna Work Out Fine" in 1962.[15] Alang wi the Kings of Rhythm an the Ikettes, thay toured the Chitlin' Circuit as the Ike & Tina Turner Revue.[16]
Writer Peter Guralnick is amang thaim tae identify Solomon Burke as a key feegur in the emergence o soul muisic, an Atlantic Records as the key record label. Burke's early 1960s sangs, includin "Cry to Me", "Just Out of Reach (of My Two Open Arms)" an "Down in the Valley" are considered clessics o the genre. Guralnick wrate:
Soul stairtit, in a sense, wi the 1961 success o Solomon Burke's "Just Out of Reach". Ray Charles, o coorse, haed awready enjoyed enormous success (on Atlantic an aa), as haed James Brown an Sam Cooke — maistly in a pop vein. Ilk o thir sangsters, thou, coud be leukit upon as an isolatit phenomenon; it wis anly wi the comin thegither o Burke an Atlantic Records that ye coud begin tae see onything even resemblin a muivement.

Ben E. King achieved success in 1961 wi "Stand by Me" an aa, a sang directly based on a gospel hymn. Bi the mid-1960s, the initial successes o Burke, King, an ithers haed been surpassed bi new soul sangsters, includin Stax airtists sic as Otis Redding an Wilson Pickett, wha mainly recordit in Memphis, Tennessee, an Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Accordin tae Jon Landau:
Atween 1962 an 1964 Redding recordit a series o soul ballads chairacterised bi unabashedly sentimental leerics uisually beggin forgieness or askin a lassfreend tae come hame... He suin becam kent as "Mr. Pitiful" an earnt a reputation as the leadin performer ofsoul ballads.
The maist important female soul sangster tae emerge wis Aretha Franklin, oreeginally a gospel sangster wha begoud tae mak secular recordins in 1960 but whase career wis later revitalisit bi her recordins fur Atlantic. Her 1967 recordins, sic as "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)", "Respect" (written an oreeginally recordit bi Otis Redding), an "Do Right Woman, Do Right Man" (written bi Chips Moman an Dan Penn), wis signeeficant an commercially successfu recordins.[17]
Soul muisic dominatit the U.S. African-American muisic chairts in the 1960s, an mony recordins crossed ower intae the pop chairts in the U.S. Otis Redding wis a huge success at the Monterey Internaitional Pop Fest in 1967. The genre becam heichly popular in the UK an aa, whaur mony leadin acks toured in the late 1960s. "Soul" becam an umberellae term fur an increasingly wide variety o R&B-based muisic styles – frae the dance an pop-orientit acks at Motown Records in Detroit, sic as the Temptations, Marvin Gaye an Stevie Wonder, tae "deep soul" performers sic as Percy Sledge an James Carr.[18][19][20] Different regions an ceeties athin the U.S., includin New York Ceety, Detroit, Chicago, Memphis, New Orleans, Philadelphia, an Muscle Shoals, Alabama (the hame o FAME Studios an Muscle Shoals Sound Studios) becam notit fur different subgenres o the muisic an recordin styles.[9][21]
Bi 1968, whiles at its peak o popularity, soul begoud tae fragment intae different subgenres. Airtists sic as James Brown an Sly and the Family Stone evolvit intae funk muisic, whiles ither sangsters sic as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Curtis Mayfield an Al Green developit slicker, mair sophisticatit an in some cases mair poleetically conscious varieties o the genre. Houiver, soul muisic continued tae evolve, informin maist subsequent forms o R&B frae the 1970s-onwaird, wi pockets o muisickers continuin tae perform in tradeetional soul style.[9]

In Detroit, producer Don Davis wirkit wi Stax airtists sic as Johnnie Taylor an the Dramatics.[25] Early 1970s recordins bi the Detroit Emeralds, sic as Do Me Right, are a link atween soul an the later disco style.[26] Motown Records airtists sic as Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder an Smokey Robinson contreibutit tae the evolution o soul muisic, awthou thair recordins wis considered mair in a pop muisic vein nor thaim o Redding, Franklin an Carr.[18] Awthou stylistically different frae clessic soul muisic, recordins bi Chicago-based airtists are aften considered pairt o the genre.[27]
