WHAT IS SOUL MUSIC?

Soul Music means "music of the soul".

Soul music is popular African-American born in the late 1950's in the United States, derived from, among others, gospel and rhythm and blues (R & B).

It is considered by some as a return of rhythm and blues roots from which it came: the gospel (church music).
