Your favorite male soul voices

The most fascinating aspect of this music, is the fact that it was the soundtrack of our lives no matter where we were; we could go from Chicago, to Detroit, and then to Atlanta, and still hear the same music; they were even listening to it in Vietnam.

Gil Scott Heron, a beautiful cat who had as much soul as anyone.

Nat King Cole.

Sinatra has no peer, as well as Mel Torme.  I love Chet Baker, too.   But my favorite male vocalist is Bobby Scott, who never sounded better than one of his later recordings, "Slowly."      

That happens to me occasionally too; I post on the wrong thread. I like Frank and Mel, but they're not what you would call "soul vocalist", neither is Chet Baker, but maybe Bobby Scott falls in that category; I'll have to check him out.
