Soul Artists Who Made History With One Song — Then Were Left With Nothing
They made the music. They wrote the songs. They recorded the masterpieces. Then the industry moved on without them. Little Willie John recorded "Fever" before Peggy Lee made it famous. James Brown called him the greatest soul singer he ever heard. He died in prison at 30 under circumstances nobody has ever fully explained. Howard Tate recorded "Get It While You Can" in 1967. Janis Joplin covered it four years later and it became a classic. Tate was living on the streets of Camden, New Jersey, addicted to crack — and his fans genuinely thought he was dead. King Curtis played on over 500 sessions, led Aretha Franklin's band, and mentored Duane Allman. He was stabbed on his own doorstep at 37 over a dispute about an air conditioning unit. Phyllis Hyman had one of the most extraordinary voices in American music history. She took her own life on the morning she was scheduled to perform at the Apollo Theater. She was 45. Twelve soul artists. Twelve defining songs. Twelve verified true stories the music industry would rather you didn't know. #SoulMusic #ForgottenSoul #RnBHistory #BlackMusicHistory #MusicHistory #LittleWillieJohn #Fever #HowardTate #GetItWhileYouCan #KingCurtis #PhyllisHyman #ZZHill #BettyeLaVette #OVWright #BobbyBland #ClarenceCarter #Patches #DonCovay #AnnPeebles #LeeMoses #MusicDocumentary #LostSoul #AtlanticRecords #DukeRecords #VerveRecords #KingRecords #CrimeNegligence #SoulNorthernSoul #RareGroove #DeepSoulMusic #SouthernSoul #VinylCommunity #RecordCollector #SoulSingers #GospelToSoul #MusicExploitation #LabelAbandonment #60sSoul #70sSoul #80sSoul #SoulHistory #MusicRoyalties
