Ray Merrel - Soul? hmm I don't know about that.

Is it because he's white ?

No it's because he sounds like Val  Doonican

Is he Irish? .

Don't really care where he's from, this does not sound like a soul record to me, that's just my opinion (I'm sure I'm not the only one).

Running in the background all through this , one of my firm favourites ... 

 

Could have been a tidy instrumental?

No doubt one will exist?!

A prosperous and Happy New Year when it finally reaches us.

Didn't know the record when it was first released as a crappy mainstream pop record for obvious reasons , but after  getting involved in going to northern soul all nighters   and hearing loads of crappy white pop records , stemmons express springs to mind as well,  IMPO some of that type of record ooze's soul for me 👍🎶🎶🎶big up to all the jocks  is what l say .👏🎶👍

That Beatyn rhythm  or Cigarette Ashes if you wish  

Sons of Moses  ..... Soul something cant remember .

Tony Galla   so in love  Swan 

Sty-lets  To far to turn around  Pillar 

Rufus Wood  Before 2001 Espanola 

Salvadors Stick by me baby Wise World 

The Group / Cecil Washington - I Don't Like To Lose

Cafe reggio 's. Issac Hayes . fantastic plonking of them keys . 🎶🎶

First one that comes to mind for me is Marvin's  '' Little Darling''  love the tinkling piano in the background it makes a great record brilliant. 

Never tire of hearing this record still sounds fresh today.

Esperanto.  Grand piano company.  

Stemmons Express.  You had to be there to understand.

I know its a record that's been flogged to death but I still love Ramsey Lewis  and  ''Wade In The Water'' , when Ramsey sweeps the length of the piano I,m  playing there with him

First heard stemmons down the 100 club , didn't understand it then still don't now , blinding record though 👌🎶🎶
