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. ░░ ░░█ ░░███ ░█ ░░░░██ █▓█ ████░ ░░░░░██ y o o v e e y o o █████ █████ ░░░░░░██ g o t t h e ▒████░ ██▒▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ░ ██▓██ ▓█▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ████ ▒▓███ ▒███ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ ░███████ ████░ ░███ ░░░░░░░█ ░███░███░█ █░███░███ █████████▒ █████ ██ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████████ █████ █ ░░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██████████████████ ████▓ ░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ████████████████████▒ ░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓██████▒▒▒▒███████░ ░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓█████▒███████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ █████▒▒░████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██▓██▒██▓███▒ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░███░█ ░███ ▒███████ /─────────────────────────\ ░░░██ ███ ░| learned from vets |░ ░░░░██ ████ ░| and they |░ ░░░░░██ █████ ░| ain't pet doctors |░ ░░░░░░███ ████▒ \─────────────────────────/ ░░░░░░░▓▓█████████████▒ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ https://www.deezer.com/us/album/7738430
