Soulin' is an album by blues musician Jimmy Reed released by the BluesWay label in 1967.[1][2][3]
Reception
AllMusic reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine stated the album was: "bogged down by a production that tries to move Reed into the blues-rock era. Consequently, the album is primarily of interest to completists, since even hardcore Reed fans may find the production disconcerting".[4]
