60’s Soul Tribute – Retro Soul Ballads Mix (1960) • “Hold Me Like the River Does”
This original, 1-hour 20-minute, 26-track Retro Soul Ballads Mix captures the emotional language of early 1960s soul, where intimacy, restraint, and growing vocal power shaped the foundation of classic soul music.Rooted in Classic Soul Music 60s and early Vintage Soul textures, this long-play session blends tender ballad phrasing with moments of rising intensity and emotional release. Warm analog grooves, expressive dynamics, and gospel-touched feeling define the sound of this era — a time when soul music moved slowly, honestly, and with purpose. Inspired by the raw emotional delivery associated with the Southern soul tradition and voices such as Wilson Pickett, these performances honor the spirit of early soul without imitation, remaining fully original and expressive. Built around the gradual emotional rise of “Hold Me Like the River Does,” this session unfolds like a vinyl story — patient at first, then deeper, stronger, and more open with every turn.Captured as a long-play vinyl session with No Loops and No Repeats, it’s crafted for vinyl lovers, late-night listeners, and anyone drawn to timeless soul that grows with feeling rather than force.
