The Top 100 New Soul Releases 2021 Q1

As it's the end of the first quarter of 2021 I thought I'd publish a list of the top 100 releases of the year so far.  Essentially it is a consolidation of the weekly 'Dirty Dozen' I feature each Sunday which I started on 7 Feb so there are 96 entries from 8 weeks and I'll select an additional four from this week to make it up to 100. I will whittle it down to my top 10 later.

Notes: 
- They are in no particular order
- Link on title to YouTube
- There may be a few 'hangovers' from 2020 (a couple may have been released earlier)
- There are also several covers / remixes / reissues as I've only recenly started filtering these out
- Figures in square brackets are [Camelot Key / BPM] from TuneBat 
- TuneBat regularly doubles BPM for ballads .. so these have been corrected
