Music reviews of The Soul Album
Music Review: The Soul Album
Rating: 5 Stars
I have this Album in Stereo & the CD is in MONO. The biggest difference in the two the complete unedit version of Just One More Day plays on the CD Mono Version and and the still being worked on Scratch My Back plays on the Mono Version. The Stereo Album has the Finish Takes. Will the Stereo Version of the Soul Album ever be release. Same applies to the Dictionary of Soul. The Stereo Album has the completed takes the Mono CD has alternate takes: Day Tripper & Hawg For You. Maybe one day the Stereo Verisons of The Soul Album & Dictionary Of Soul will be release because the Albums have the finish Takes. But until that happens and it won't because with Otis Redding Rhino will not release anything prior to 1967 in Stereo. But with Sam & Dave Carla Thomas it does not applied.

Although Redding was a great songwriter (he gave us Aretha's "Respect" and Arthur Conley's "Sweet Soul Music"--'nuff said), he partially made a reputation for himself as a great interpreter of other people's material, ranging from Beatles and Stones covers to "Louie Louie" to standards like "Try a Little Tenderness," which had originally been a hit for Bing Crosby. And unlike other soul artists of the time, including the great Jackie Wilson, Redding--with the help, of course, of guitarist Steve Cropper, bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn, and drummer Al Jackson--could take even schlock, at least in R&B terms (i.e., "The Tennessee Waltz"), and transcend it, making it his own. Otis makes all 11 tracks here his own--not that any of them were ever considered schlock. But many, including Sam Cooke's "Chain Gang," Roy Head's "Treat Her Right," and Wilson Pickett's "634-5789," were closely associated with their originators. Redding's cover of Smokey Robinson's "Scratch My Back" is so awesome that it makes you forget the Miracles' original. The Soul Album is sometimes underrated because it's a covers album--but it's a classic covers album, nevertheless. --Bill Holdship
