The Seeker Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 I'm trying to get myself into soul, because I like a lot of this music but the thing is just that I know close to nothing about it and I want to change that. So, any recommendations where to start? Artists, albums...and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
