Close Enough to Wonder - 60s Detroit Soul (Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson Style) - Leroy Reed

From the ASA Records Detroit files, Close Enough to Wonder finds Leroy Reed caught between affection and certainty. The piano and Hammond organ remain restrained while Reed sings just behind the beat, allowing every hesitation to stay exposed. He moves closer, pulls back, and searches for a name for something his heart may already understand. A quiet 1962 Detroit soul ballad about standing close enough to love without yet knowing how to enter it.
