The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There’s also a negative side.

I wouldn’t call this entirely rare soul becasue the whole mix isn’t soul, and I guess I can’t really say how rare it is, because I know a whole lot of this stuff on here. But I’m probably not the typical music listener, so maybe it’s all rare, and then so are we.
