As a good folkie, I now find myself playing in a soul band, in the heartland of soul music… Cornwall. One of the singers in this soul band is getting into this music, and now beginning to throw in the occasional 'Lawd have Mercyyyyyy!'. This started me thinking about all the standard soul music vocal clichés and tricks… typically, I can't think of Otis Redding without thinking 'gotta, gotta, gotta…'! But of course my mind went numb and I can't think of any more. What vocal clichés can be utilised in a soul band, please? I'm a soul man, y'all! Thanks, - Cappuccino
