Can you say "Dave Matthews Band"?
Care to share some good examples?
Well, the first one that really pops into my head as a prime
example of good country-soul fusion is...the Band! Think of the way
Danko's groovy bass works with Levon's dry-as-dust drumming style, and how
the rhythm section then complimented the slinky guitar parts of Robbie
Robertson, all while playing songs that easily and organically combined
country, folk, blues and rock'n'roll elements. Mmmmm. Mighty tasty.
