Sweet Southern Soul

Lou Johnson

1969
Cotillion

Another Muscle Shoals classic, this time from pianist and singer Lou Johnson, Sweet Southern Soul features a big, widescreen production, blending country-soul with a gospel feel and plenty of blues. Put together with a production/musician dream team and a suite of quality songs, it’s a cohesive whole despite the wide variety of material and it’s just another one of soul music’s mysteries why Sweet Southern Soul is not better known.
