    Let’s talk about a real soul sister, a dynamite rhythm queen! We're talkin' about the one, the only, Candi Staton!

    You know I dig a song with heart, with soul, with a little bit of grit in it, and Candi Staton, she's got it all! We all know Tammy Wynette's "Stand By Your Man", a country classic. But when Candi Staton got a hold of it in 1970, She took that song, injected it with pure, unadulterated soul, and gave it a whole new heartbeat!

    She poured out her heart, sang it with a conviction that cut right to the bone. Listen to those lyrics!

    "Sometimes it's hard to be a womanGiving all your love to just one manOh, yeah, you'll have bad timesHe'll have good timesDoing things thatYou don't understand"

    Yeah, she lays it on the line. It ain't always roses and sunshine! There's struggle, there's hurt, there's times you gotta bite your lip and hold on tight. But that's real life.
    And then she belts it out:

    "Stand by your manGive him two arms to cling toAnd something warm to come toWhen nights are cold and lonely"

    Candi Staton took that "Stand By Your Man" message, added a whole lotta soul fire, and turned it into something brand new! She gave it vulnerability, she gave it strength, she gave it that raw, unfiltered emotion that only a true queen of soul can deliver! It's a song about loyalty, about love, about the hard work it takes to make a relationship last.

    And let me tell you something, Candi Staton's version, it connected with a whole generation! It showed that standing by your man ain't always easy, but it can be worth it. It's a demonstration to her power as a singer, as a performer, and as a woman!

    So, next time you hear that Candi Staton rendition of "Stand By Your Man," remember the soul, the heart, and the pure, unadulterated emotion that she poured into every single note. That's what makes it a timeless classic! That’s Candi Staton for you. A true original!
    And that’s all for now folks!

    Today we’re going to talk about the country soul scene with Kashus Culpepper’s soulful song “Pour Me Out”! This tune has got the kind of raw authenticity that makes blues music what it is—a bittersweet reflection of life’s ups and downs, and it hits hard!

    Let’s take a second to soak in those lyrics. The song is a classic setup that reels you right into the story—every note and every line feels like a familiar struggle. “Acting like we're just friends,”—oh, the sweet agony of unrequited feelings! It’s like he’s pouring his heart out to us, and we can’t help but sympathize with his plight.

    And then we dive deeper—we’ve got the imagery of running on empty, drowning in those strong feelings for someone who seems just out of reach. You can feel the weight of those words! “My heart ain't a hundred proof,” he sings, and that tells you everything you need to know. He’s vulnerable; he’s real. He’s not trying to impress anyone with bravado; he knows where he stands, and he’s ready for the cold, hard truth.

    It’s when the chorus comes in where he pleads, “If you don't wanna drink me, baby / Don't sip me, baby / Just pour me out.” Man, that’s the heart of the song right there! It’s a brilliant metaphor, comparing love to a drink—a beautiful concoction that someone might enjoy or leave untouched. It captures that feeling of desperation and desire, the want to be more than just an afterthought, more than just another round at the bar. And doesn’t that speak to us all?

    Culpepper’s voice—the way he pours his heart into each note—it takes you right to the bottom of that glass, where all the truth hides. It’s a blend of sorrow and strength, a reflection of vulnerability that is so often missing in today’s music landscape.

    So folks, if you haven’t yet, pour yourself a glass of something strong—maybe sit back, relax, and listen to Kashus Culpepper’s “Pour Me Out”. It’s a country blues experience that captures love and longing, and it just might leave you feeling like you’ve had your own heart poured out.

    Georgia Morning Dew is from the Heart & Soul is a compilation album by American blues musician Johnny Adams. Released in 1969 by SSS International, the record was produced by Shelby Singleton and contains much of Adams' 1960s output.

    Heart & Soul largely blends 1960s gospel, soul, pop, blues, country and funk. "Georgia Morning Dew" has been described as "bouncy country-funk" that provides a "giddy, melancholy counterpart to Adams' throaty proclamations."

    When I listen to Georgia Morningdew through the horns and screen instrument I hear country when Johnny Adams sings.

    Standing on this mountain
    Looking over LA
    At the break of day
    Takes my mind back to Georgia
    Many years ago
    When I was just a babe
    Papa'd plow up the fields
    And we'd walk behind


    When I hear Johnny sing about the mountain and plowing up the field, I know that's country with the tune and words to the song.

    I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to the Country Soul Show.
