While Brendan takes a well-earned break, Steve Talbot steps in for this week’s Mod N Soul show – and what a show it is.
The first half is a deep dive into the incredible legacy of Stax Records, the Memphis label that defined Southern soul. Expect classics from Otis Redding, Booker T. & the MG’s, Carla Thomas, and Sam & Dave, plus some lesser-known gems that capture the raw, heartfelt sound that made Stax such a force in 60s soul music. We explore the label’s rich history, its cultural impact, and the unmistakable groove that still resonates today.
This week’s Featured Artist is none other than Sly & The Family Stone. Following the sad news of Sly Stone’s passing, we pay tribute to his groundbreaking fusion of soul, funk, and psychedelia. Expect to hear some of his most iconic tracks, alongside music from contemporaries and those he inspired. Of course, it wouldn’t be Mod N Soul without some floor-fillers and sweet soul classics sprinkled throughout – a show full of heart, rhythm, and deep soul.
