Link please. A search for "sixties soul" on Spotify brings up a ton of results. Thanks.

Fine. I edited it a bit from what I sent Jingles so it is more of a pure soul list (the other started with some groove jazz and had some anthony newley and stuff).

Sleek, you playlist is going to be used a lot this upcoming summer on my boat. Perfect for cruising around the island of Cocoa Beach.

Back in the Columbia House days, I had this one. It's a good Motown 101 place to start...
