Some of the songs featured in this app are quite rare and not generally available to listen to on other sites. The majority of the songs as well as the original vinyl records and albums are available for purchase on Amazon.com, and you will find an Amazon buy button for each song at the bottom of the Player on the song's page.

If you are new to SoulYears we hope you enjoy your visit and discover lots of great tunes to listen to and share with others. For millions of people all over the world R&B is their favourite genre, and if you yourself are new to it, we recommend listening to songs from the sixties, seventies and eighties, which are generally regarded as the golden years of R&B with the emergence of Soul music (a subset of R&B) and Motown in the early sixties which later led to the disco-dance and disco-funk eras of the seventies and eighties.

You can play as many individual songs as you wish by clicking on the song title of any song, which will take you to its page, and pressing the play button. If you wish to use the playlist feature you need to log in though as the music player will timeout after 6 minutes otherwise.
