Why did vote the way you did?

where's marvin gaye??????

Good point, but I think your comment will fall on deaf ears. Not only has JohnnyW not been around here in a while, but the poll is also archived.

you're right, i didn't notice.

Brother Ray. Brother Ray. Tough choices as I love Cooke, Aretha and Otis and they all could easily be the right choice. Actually love everyone on this list with the possible exception of Solomon. Mr Burke is good in small doses. If you do not know already know them and you like this kind of Music may i suggest some Otis Clay and James Carr. Carr has a great compliation disc called The esential James Carr and Otis Clay has some great 90's modern soul records.

Yes, I do love soul, and no, I'm not familiar with Carr and Clay; I'd love to pick up some of their stuff. Thanks for the recommendations. I have to say that Al Green is my favorite, although I'm like you: Aretha, Sam, Otis, or Ray could just as easily get my vote...
