Wow, these guys really did the Stax legacy proud with this CD! If you like old-style soul, or if you've never really listened to it, but are a Huey Lewis and the News fan, this is the place to get educated because your ears and your toes are in for a treat. From the funky vibes of "Respect Yourself" and "Grab This Thing" to the all-to-danceable "Never Like This Before" and "Little Sally Walker" to the smooth grooves of "Cry to Me" and "Never Found Girl" (which can make the unmoveable start swaying) to the heartbreaking "Just One More Day" and the title track "Soulsville," the band covers the genre thru the Stax catalog quite thoroughly. Sports may be their legacy, but what they taken and created out of the Stax legacy is nothing short of pure magic......
