With soul music enjoying a resurgence in popularity, many fans are getting to experience the early days of the genre through throwback acts like Eli "Paperboy" Reed. The singer-guitarist from Boston recently released his third album -- and major-label debut -- 'Come and Get It,' and to him, soul's return to prominence is a natural evolution in today's musical landscape.
