THIS IS WHERE I LIVE By William Bell


If you love soul music as much as I do, you will really enjoy William Bell’s latest CD, This Is Where I Live. This CD was the top recommendation of Best Music of 2016 by Music Critic Ken Tucker on NPR’s Fresh Air. I confess: I hadn’t heard of William Bell. But as soon as I heard the first few notes of “The Three of Me,” I knew William Bell made the kind of music I love. Bell’s songs run the gauntlet of emotions and strife. This sounds like the classic soul music I grew up with. Check out the sample below. GRADE: A

      Deb, thanks for that info!

      I well remember that song being played by Jimi Hendrix and Cream.

      If you look up Bell on wiki (I don’t link here because the comment will go into moderation if it has more than one link …) you’ll find his songs were sung by all the greats …
      Ain’t it fantastic how all that info is available now at your fingertips – just a few clicks away!
