R&B music has gone through many changes over the years - but the soul ballad has remained a timeless form of musical expression. Indianapolis has produced a large catalog of classic soul ballads, and this week we'll be sharing a selection of Naptown slow jams connected to the Avenue scene including songs The Vanguards, Manchild, Ebony Rhythm Funk Campaign, Jimmy Gilford, and others.
