Soul music lost a great legend on January 5th. Willie Mitchell was responsible for the music of Al Green and the entire sound of Memphis based record label Hi-Records. Poppa Willie passed away at age 81 and leaves a tremendous catalog of classics behind. Dutch music collector Djef, who manages the Originals section at online jukebox 22tracks, selected 22 gems as an ode to him and his legacy. |
| Mitchell produced sparkling jewels like Al Green's Let's Stay Together and diamonds in the rough such as Could I Be Falling In Love by the more obscure Syl Johnson. Rather than having a hard time keeping up with the pace of music, the distinguished sound he once wrote the blueprint for remains timeless. Do You Feel Me by Anthony Hamilton, produced by The Bomb Squad's Hank Shocklee and arranged by Willie Mitchell is a perfect example of how the sound of Hi-Records is still very much sought-after in today's music. | |

I introduced a new structure for listing the albums and 12inches. You can now better view per period which albums an artist has recorded. Period 1980-1989 is the default, because these years are Black Music DB speciality. If you want see the albums/12inches of an other period you can click the appropriate years. The default album sorting order is by year (descending).

‘SOULED’ (Out) Who keeps Messing with our Music? By Lamar R. Thomas, Sr. Hello fellow Soul, Rhythm & Blues, and Black Music Lovers, please help me out with this, for I am a bit confused, or perhaps I didn't grow up listening to the right music or the right artists. What exactly is "Northern and/or Modern Soul"? And how does that differs from the original Black Music? Did some else: “Create some new form of Black Music, with its’ own originality? Help me please! |
