Just wondered what people thought about instrumentals? I know they've been part of the scene forever, but personally I find them pretty unsoulful. Why listen to the Instr of "Who are you trying to fool", when the vocal oozes class and soul. Or "Crying over you", as another example. Don't get me wrong, I will dance to instrumentals, but half the time I find myself singing the vocal, as I much prefer them.

Ronnie and robyn sidras theme does it for me.

can you class or call the voice an instrument?

if so does that mean that sing soulfully is the same as play soulfully?

 

 

Theres not many instrumentals I prefer to the vocal side....if it's a good vocal side, but some individuals kind of mix both in a lot of their songs...

As others have said Junior Walker sounds soulful whether he is playing his sax or singing the words.

George Benson also with his guitar style, especially on 'love ballad' and even the young Stevie Wonder on 'fingertips'.
