Chicago Soul

Chicago Soul is a genre of soul music that originated in Chicago in the late 1950s and early 1960s. It is characterized by its use of gospel-style vocals, heavy use of horns, and a strong emphasis on rhythm and blues. It is often associated with the Motown sound, and is known for its upbeat, danceable sound. It is also known for its use of call-and-response vocals, and its incorporation of elements of jazz and blues. Chicago Soul is often seen as a precursor to disco music, and is still popular today.
