obviously Brown Sugar was the first to get the "label" of neo-soul...
but if you want to look beyond the label.... you could go a couple ways...
either look at what were the sonic and musical pre-cursors to Brown Sugar...
or... look generally at the idea of a contemporary album that utilized a vibe or a style that harkened back to a particular sound in previous Soul or R&B...
I'd have to think about it...
