One Step Ahead of The Time



I enjoy listening to soul music. Not necessarily anything newer like Alicia Keys and John Legend and these more recent singers. They're fine, but I like hearing really old, classic soul songs - songs made way before you needed to feature a rapper or intricate dance choreography.

For example, I was listening to some young Aretha Franklin from back in the early 60's - pre-RESPECT fame.  I just think it's kind of underrated which is ironic since it's from the "Queen of Soul". Obviously, this was made long before I was born, but you just get the feeling it was a much simpler time. (Musically I mean. Not all the political and race relations issues going on.)

P.S. You'll probably recognize where it's been sampled pretty quickly.
