    yes, i own it. not really related those artists at all, it's about the funk brothers, session players who contributed the music for a large chunk of motown's output before they moved to LA.

    if you want seriously kickass soul music, i recommend Republic of Loose. they have a lot of funk and hiphop influences as well, and some gospel stylings, but they blow most r&b you'd hear on the radio out of the water with ease.

    yeah new r'n'b or soul! has no soul in it anymore!!! ...it's horrible...they lose their own definition but 60's until the mid-70's soul was real deep with imagination who surrounded their afro hair.... maybe it's all gone with their hair...less brain less place to imagine...

    The 90's were NOT the 60's music scene! Grunge was the fact that Generation X was raised by mindless hippies and they did a poor ass job of raising them!!!! So we offed ourselves or sang about it! The 60's sucked Hippies sucked they acoplished nothing!!!

    I'm sure you'll get over it in no time.

    But now I'm remembering the naive, hopeful tone of the early/mid nineties... when digital technology was cool for its own sake, not some cheap, overused effect; when Brittany's schoolgirl video was considered racy; when the corny rawness of the eighties was on the brink of conversion to the smoother, more impersonal raunchiness of the current decade... oh, and take me back to the time when alt-rock was an authentic form of communication, not a sellable genre! Oh god! Now that you mention it, I do miss the nineties.
