Early Supremes, any Tamla Motown or Stax. The really early stuff was much simpler in its construction, so I would give that a listen first before you move into the 70's where it became more produced... Also Northern Soul is a fantastic place to start, as the time signatures are almost always on the beat, and every beat. They are also very predictable patterns to follow.. Think of Tainted Love.... It sounds odd, but if you can't pick a specific song up straight away, don't spend ages over it, find another 'quick hit' to learn and get a few in the bag that way, but ALWAYS return to the ones you have parked up, and finish them as your understanding and competence grows.
