retro soul

This week's playlist is a veritable time machine. Leon Bridges, Nick Waterhouse and JD McPherson are all unique in their own way but I think also share the same retro feel. These artists exhibit the sound and feeling of soul music from the 50's and 60's. Each one, that is if you weren't looking, could easily slip between Otis Redding and Sam Cooke. I am not by any means comparing them to those greats. They have however recreated the sound with a distinctly modern take.

There are a lot of things that shouldn't come back like 80's fashion statements or maybe jorts. It seems however that somehow things have a tendency to come back around. I enjoy the take back to another time and think these songs are great!

Have a great week and listen well.
