^^^

Thank you, I'm only familiar with the initial song. But "Taxi" sound just as serious music

Maybe I'm not paying much attention, but the "bluesy" R&B ballads seem like a lost art these days. I miss its improvisational feel. Makes the dramatic effect more pronounced.

99.9% of everything I say is strictly for my own entertainment

Here's the answer song by Anne LaSear

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Answer songs used to be kinda popular back then.
