Here's My Top 60 R&B/ Soul Albums of all time(really from 1963 to now, singles would be too complicated so I didn't technically dig into the true beginnings of R&b). I also left out O boy(Y'all know who I'm talking bout). If we could truly separate the art from the artist he would be on this list, he has just influenced r&b in a way that we can't ignore. Enjoy the list.
