Soul To Soul: Music From The Original Soundtrack
Soul To Soul: Music From The Original Soundtrack captures the powerful performances from the legendary 1971 concert film Soul to Soul, documenting a historic musical gathering in Accra, Ghana. Pressed on vinyl LP, this soundtrack celebrates an extraordinary cultural moment when leading African-American soul, jazz and gospel artists travelled to West Africa to perform at a 13-hour concert marking Ghana’s 14th year of independence.
The event brought together some of the most electrifying performers of the era, including Ike & Tina Turner, Santana, Wilson Pickett, The Staple Singers, and the jazz pairing of Les McCann and Eddie Harris. Their performances blend soul, gospel, jazz and Afro-influenced rhythms, creating an unforgettable live atmosphere that celebrates both musical excellence and cultural connection.
Highlights include fiery renditions from the Ike & Tina Turner Revue, a rousing finale from Wilson Pickett, gospel-charged performances by The Staple Singers, and vibrant jazz explorations from Les McCann and Eddie Harris. Santana’s rhythm-driven set adds an Afro-Latin dimension, reflecting the deep musical links between African and diasporic traditions.
Digitally remastered for modern listeners, Soul To Soul: Music From The Original Soundtrack preserves the energy and significance of this landmark event. For fans of classic soul, funk and jazz, this release stands as both a historic document and a thrilling live recording from a defining moment in music history.
