We revisit the Numero Groups incredible catalog of rare and obscure soul recordings from the 1960s and 1970s called “Eccentric Soul”. This series is a meticulous curation and exercise in unearthing hidden gems in the soul music landscape from old record collections, master tapes, and archives to discover unreleased or overlooked tracks by artists who may not have gained widespread recognition during their time. What sets the “Eccentric Soul” series apart is its emphasis on bringing attention to regional and independent soul labels that operated on a smaller scale, often producing music reflecting the unique local music cultures of their time. Our show digs into a number of releases that showcase a diverse array of sounds, styles, and voices, offering listeners a glimpse into this rich tapestry of American soul music, honoring the best of the day with all the rough edges you’d expect (and desire) with a sincerity of artistry and bald-face emotion. Bring on the soul here on Sonoma County Community Radio.
