"Dock Of The Bay" is probably the best Atlantic soul track ever.

I let Sammy vote on this one and he picked "Soul Man." Can't argue too much really.

I'll take it over anything by Motown, too.

William Bell made an unnanounced appearance with the Stax Music Academy on the mall in Washington DC at the free Smithsonian Folklife Festival the other day. He shares "Dock of the Bay" with the group, is lead on "Any Other Way," does a duet on "You can Have My Private Number," and is lead on "Forgot to be Your Lover"

He does Sam Cooke "You Send Me" too, at the end

Forgot to be Your Lover is one of my favorite soul songs by Bell. His record 'Relenting' is worth getting, very nice late Stax era soul.

It makes me ;_; that no-one voted for Otis & Carla's 'Tramp' - I love that groove so much
