Brilliant LP, every track just so good.

1968 masterpiece, criminally ignored by the American record buying public,  but thankfully included in the 1993 CD, The Deepest Soul.

2018, living on the street, murdered in cold blood.  R I P.

I just LUV the screamers, and this girl can really get there. Equal to the late great Linda Jones.

Here's my "W" contribution from one of my favorite 70's fusion albums, Dexter Wansel' "Life On Mars"; on this track here's Terri Wells as featured female vocalist (she was previously on the vocal group City Limits and after as a solo act):

Another "W", the enormous Deniece Williams and my favorite track produced by Thom Bell with the strings section, particualry the cello, so mellow:

Mavis Staples or her family never did a version of "It's something" as far as I know, but this Curtis Mayfield penned and produced song from a very good comedy film soundtrack does her/them justice:

And rewinding all the way back to B for this by someone who mostly gave us eurodisco but took time out for one album produced by Michael Lovesmith to give us this very Mtume & Lucas sounding classic - Pattie Brooks:

Taka Boom could certainly belt it out, and did her fair share of disco and eighties electro-thumpers, but her stint in the Undisputed Truth gave us this:

Great tune, the Truth were one of my favourite groups when I was going through the funk stage of my record collecting, I've heard this played out a couple of times ,always been one of my fav tunes, great to see it here.

One of the best female vocalists of the last 30 years, and still to be featured here - Lalah Hathaway:

 

A very fine voice. I remember havin heard (in Spotify...?) a duet with she and John Whitehead little before he was killed. If you come to "H" or "L" letters, I can't wait to return to "L" letter for express my LOVE and ADMIRATION to one of IMHO, best vocalists of the last 30 - 40 - 50 years: CARMEN LUNDY and my favorite track from her CD "Devil Moon" (JVC, 1995). Everyday was radio air played on Spanish "Área Reservada" on Radio Nacional de España, Radio 3, along a entire year. There's an incredible and mellow trumpet riff by Randy Brecker!!:

Great nomination, and a very classy lady. Saw her live years ago - very impressive. I remember hearing that album being featured on BBC Radio 1's soul show of the time, of all places! She's still going strong and releasing high quality albums.

Despite the fact the title of this song is "You're not in love", I was immediately IN LOVE when I heard it on the spanish radio program mentioned and little after I come to the music store near to my job and purchased the two consecutive CD's they have: "Selfportrait" and "Devil Moon". Never found nothing more by Carmen Lundy. Two years after this spanish radio program did a live interview with her for her Granada University Concert (I lives in Tarragona, at more than 1000 Km!). Talkin' about "new female vocalists" she is IMHO the best jointly with Maysa Leak, Erika Baddu and Jaguar Wright (I was searching Jaguar Wright's "Nothing" from the Larry Gold's "Don Cello & Friends" fantastic CD for post it in the "W" letter but is not available on Youtube!)

I can't find my favorite track by Jaguar Wright, "Nothing", so I post the "second favorite", the strong "So High":

 eXacerbating not being able to think of an "X" -but we should open "X" up now.

I have consulted the video referee and he says “eX” is permissible.

Originally a girl group called the Masterettes, but Herb Rooney replaced Penny Carter when she left- So technically a mixed group (at least after 1963).
