Listen to Soul! Exploring a Musical Genre provides an overview of soul music for fans of the genre, with a focus on 50 must-hear singers, songs, and albums that define it.

This book provides both an overview and a critical analysis of what makes soul music in the United States. A list of 50 songs, albums, and musicians includes many of the best-known hits of the past and present from artists such as Alicia Keys and Stevie Wonder, as well as several important popular successes that are not necessarily on the "best-of" lists in other books.

Like the other books in this series, this volume includes a chapter that focuses on the background of soul music followed by 50 critical essays on must-hear albums, songs, and singers. Chapters on the impact of soul music on popular culture and the legacy of the genre further explain the impact of these seminal compositions and musicians. This volume additionally includes a greater focus on soul music as a genre, making it a stand-out title on the topic for high school and college readers.
