I'd rather be high than heavyFTFY
Sure soul comes from gospel - no one would argue otherwise. I'm not sure about who was first.
I'm not saying you're wrong - just opening it up a bit.
I was usually more interested in the shouters - Archie Brownlee down to James Brown pedigree..

Gosphel was definitely first, it came from churches. Origins of blues and other forms of music that attracted blacks are more varied, but most soul singers back in the day credited being in a gospel choir as their start and main influence.
That was kinda my main point - Leland - JB wouldn't exist if not for the likes of Archie Brownlee. The affirmation/ shout to the lord style was straight from Church. Not that church didn't take some from blues, jazz, brass band etc but it was mostly one way. Like i said I'm not out to argue with you.The shouting started in the churches too, I have quite a few preacher discs from the 20's more hardcore than Brown ever was.
I never came across a soul artist pre-80's who didn't learn or grow up in a church, shouldn't really be surprising with segregation. In the pre-modern recording era most soul (gospel) artists, generally excluding folk preachers, trained classically in universities and is self-evident in the recordings.

wtf?Sadly, while gosphel is worthy of note, I can't get into it because of all the god savior jesus talk. It's like a woman telling you about her fantasy of you gaying with another guy while in the middle of sex.
wtf?
You ok there?
