"Soul Changes should please fans of that old time sound, but its connections to the past will limit its mainstream values. One has the sensation that one has heard these songs before, even the new ones. As a result, the album will be compared with the original music from the era. In an era where the works of O.V. Wright, Otis Redding, and Percy Sledge are available at the push of a button, it is hard for a new voice to be heard no matter how sincere it may be".
