My Classic Soul
Every other week, My Classic Soul turns up the volume on the stories behind the songs. Host Bethany Dawson sits down with renowned soul music historian David Nathan, not just to play the iconic tracks but to unpack the lives that created them. This isn't a dry history lesson; it's a conversation about the people-their struggles, triumphs, and singular artistry-that gave rhythm and blues its profound emotional power. You'll hear about the legends and the lesser-known architects of the genre, understanding how their personal journeys directly shaped the music that still resonates so deeply. Each episode of this music podcast feels like pulling up a chair for an intimate chat with two passionate experts, where the discussion is as rich and textured as the classics spinning in the background. It’s for anyone who has ever felt a chill listening to a perfect vocal run or wondered about the real story behind a timeless melody. Tune in for a genuine appreciation of soul and R&B, built on a foundation of deep knowledge and clear reverence for the artists who move us.
