About this book

Peter Guralnick traces Southern soul through the singers, musicians, songwriters, and producers who brought it to record. The book moves among studios and cities to show what different local scenes contributed. It pays particular attention to the exchange between gospel performance, rhythm and blues, and the practical work of making a record.
