░░
░░ His plaintive baritone equally conversant with R&B and country phrasing,
░░ Joe Simon married the two genres with startling success during the late
░░ 60's, adapting Nashville material to the soul sound and repeatedly coming
░░ up a winner. Simon began recording in the Bay Area, but a switch in
░░ recording sites (first to Muscle Shoals for Vee-Jay and then to Nashville
░░ after signing with disc jockey John Richbourg's Sound Stage 7 label in
░░ 1966) heightened his national appeal.
░░
░░ With easy access to prime country-oriented material, Simon soon found his
░░ true calling, scoring major hits with "Nine Pound Steel," "(You Keep Me)
░░ Hangin' On," and the number one R&B smash "The Chokin' Kind," penned by
░░ Music Row tunesmith Harlan Howard. Still dabbling in country covers after
░░ switching to the Spring imprint in 1970, Simon was even more successful
░░ when assigned to Philadelphia wizards Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, who
░░ produced the moody "Drowning in the Sea of Love" the next year.
░░
░░ Simon tried his hand at disco in 1975 with the sizzling "Get Down, Get
░░ Down (Get on the Floor)" and "Music in My Bones," two of the most
░░ palatable artifacts of the era. Simon eventually retired from active
░░ performing to devote his life to the church; in the 1990s, he recorded a
░░ gospel album called This Story Must Be Told. Joe Simon died at his home
░░ in Illinois on December 13, 2021 at the age of 78.
░░
░░ There's something about Simon's rich, burnished voice that sounds as
░░ smooth as a glass of 12-year-old bourbon, and feels just as appropriate
░░ on a sad and lonely day. In some respects, Joe Simon could be called the
░░ Roy Orbison of soul music - there's a naturally sorrowful tone in Simon's
░░ voice that shines clearly through even the most upbeat material, and both
░░ singers had obviously learned more than a little from the sounds of
░░ classic country.
░░
░░ The Chokin' Kind, the first of three albums Joe Simon would crank out in
░░ 1969, features three tunes written by the great C&W tunesmith Harlan
░░ Howard, and all three (especially the title cut) serve as superb examples
░░ of the clear if little-examined kinship between soul and country,
░░ inspiring truly stellar performances from Simon. Much of the rest of the
░░ album is padded out with covers, and while one might imagine it would
░░ take a brave man to cover Otis Redding, Glen Campbell, and the Five
░░ Satins on the same LP, Simon brings his own style and personality to each
░░ song, no matter how familiar they may be in other contexts.
░░
░░ Like many soul long-players of the 1960s, The Chokin' Kind is more a
░░ collection of songs that a unified work, but the consistent strength of
░░ Simon's performances makes it fine listen from start to finish.
