Smooth Soul Online

( January )

It's our first Top 10 of the new year, which will now be monthly. In our number 1 position neo-soul duo, Heavy, returns. In the 2-spot, is the 3 Tenors of Soul, Featuring Russell Thompkins, Jr. (from the Stylistics), Ted "Wizard" Mills (from Blue Magic), and William "Poogie" Hart (of the Delfonics). They've been touring together for a while, as the Majestiks, and have recorded an album together called All the Way From Philadelphia. To hear some of their other songs, or to download, just click on the image, to the right. From there, more of the typical variety you've come to expect from Smooth Soul. For any questions or comments regarding our top 10, please contact us at smooth rotations.
