I guess I put miles in more as an artist than a singer.
You didn't see Sam Cooke because he's in the top 10, not the top 5. You'd also see Marlena Shaw in there.
And yes, it was hastily created in response to putting Levi Stubbs in that league rather than as a definitive list. Thanks though, you've just sent me on a Sam Cooke binge.

You have style and taste.
Do you have any of the Soul Stirrers stuff that Sam Cooke sang on? it's gospel and fucking beautiful.
