    Comments: New in New jacket pp. 337. A look at the deep connection between race & music in America. Soul music is one of Americais greatest cultural achievements, & Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, & Curtis Mayfield are 3 of its most inspired practitioners. In mid-century America it was soul music--particularly the dazzling stream of recordings made by these 3 stars--that helped bring the gospel vision of the black church into the mainstream. Werner also writes about the music itself, the nuts & bolts of its creation & performance, in a way that brings a new understanding to the most familiar music, enabling readers to listen to songs theyive heard a thousand times with fresh ears. iThe book is lucid, insightful, with real spiritual, political, intellectual, & emotional grasp of the whole picture. i This is a remainder book which is new and never used. It may have a remainder mark on the edge of the pages.
