Songs that sound similar to that Frank Wilson trak

hermes1

So, I was hoping to get some Strut knowledge on what tracks sound similar to that Frank Wilson joint (Do I Love You, Indeed I Do). I guess i am talking about soul tracks drenched in strings, great production and a moving backbeat ? The fact that that track commands mad cash is of little interest to me, it's more about the vibe and tone of that track that I would like more of. I know if there is any place to ask that question, it would be here, so comps, tracks, or artists that fill this bill would be appreciated.

For starters, I can't say enough about Frank Wilson's incredible production on this album:

Reynaldo

The Whispers "Dr Love"

I know if there is any place to ask that question, it would be here,

or better yet, www.soul-source.co.uk

But one that comes to mind instantly is: Spyder Turner "I Can't Make It Anymore"

FANTASTIC northern soul. Issues are affordable. Demos are expensive (from my wallets point of view).

besides, when's the last time you heard a soul song written by Gordon Lightfoot?

The flip of this is also a great R&B styled soul track (a bit rawer & not so northern if that makes sense).
