Popular Post Mike Posted February 23 Popular Post Posted February 23 After months of non-stop touring in support of his critically acclaimed debut album, Jalen Ngonda returns with a brand new single, "Illusions." With its sophisticated arrangement and infallible, soulful groove, Jalen's voice exudes the class and maturity one may expect from an artist who has refined their craft on the road. 3 1
Mcqueen2649 Posted February 26 Posted February 26 Another great track by Jalen......... going along those lines check out "Love and flowers" (us 7) by Les Imprimes taken from the album "Reverie" from last August which is a great retro album. And another us 7 which is a funky version of "Beggin" by The Diasonics

Popular Post Thinksmart Posted March 1 Popular Post Posted March 1 (edited) It almost seems wrong to say it, but I was a bit disappointed with the new Jalen track. It felt a bit '1969 by numbers' and not that memorable. Perhaps it is just be me, but I'm also getting bored of the new retro sound, which beyond its Daptone and related origins is becoming a widely adopted thing. A lot of it is very samey in sound and production, with songs that aren't that great. Artists such as Cleo Sol manage to sound contemporary and build on the past without being stuck in it.

Guest Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Charlie Ingui, formerly of The Soul Survivors, who scored with Gamble and Huff's "Express Way To Your Heart” way back in 1967.

Thinksmart Posted March 21 Posted March 21 The new Hotlanta CD out from Ace/Kent this week is unreleased Soul - I'm looking forward to the pre-order arriving. Those Soul Direction discoveries are excellent. I cannot get the single edit reissue of Lawrence Beaman's Thinking Of You out of my head at present. Very Barry White sounding: https://www.firstexperiencerecords.com/product/lawrence-beamen-thinking-of-you-the-7-remix-been-a-long-time-7-vinyl-black-picture-sleeve-pre-order-in-stock-8-3-24/
Mike Posted April 6 Posted April 6 Listen/Buy: https://daptone.ffm.to/heretostay 'OYD An unreleased gem from the Come Around and Love Me sessions, "Here to Stay" is a gorgeously breezy ballad that will most definitely appeal to fans of the sweet soul output from our Penrose imprint.'
Twoshoes Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Pre order dropped this morning, with another version of Find Myself Another Man on the b side, this time a tad more of an rnb feel to it
Mike Posted April 21 Posted April 21 'God's Love' is the newest rendition from The Harlem Gospel Travelers. Plucked from the depths of the Numero Group catalog, the group gives this hidden gem a modern, bright, exciting and refreshing spin. The track showcases George's phenomenal falsettos; his voice entrancingly soars. This, matched with the tight melodic harmonies from the rest of the group, makes it as if they are one voice. It's a strong blend that hasn't been displayed from HGT before. To make the track their own, the group pulls inspiration from modern R&B and alternative music. They're taking their music, style, and look in a new direction. "This song is meant to be a hug when you need it...." member and co-producer Ifedayo explains, "....to make you smile when you want to cry. And most of all, to make you feel loved." Produced by Eli "Paperboy" Reed & Ifedayo download... https://colemine.lnk.to/clmn12052

Mike Posted July 10 Posted July 10 on youtube not sure what's the thinking behind the SJ 45s going public to all on youtube before 'official' announcements @Louise any reason? SJ556 Alice Taylor - Sounds Ridiculous 1
Louise Posted July 11 Posted July 11 It's the way i've operated for years now, radio play and you tube to allow people get to know the record prior to it's release. A method used by plenty of other labels i might had. Dave Soul Junction Music
Mike Posted July 11 Posted July 11 Just now, Louise said: It's the way i've operated for years now, radio play and you tube to allow people get to know the record prior to it's release. A method used by plenty of other labels i might had. Dave Soul Junction Music Yeah I get that, but in the past you have asked me to take down any news items based on the youtube release and wait for the 'official' email/news Which always struck me as a odd thing and a bit awkward as it means the rest of the world can hear it and talk about it and be aware but we here have to wait till a couple of weeks later Surely the timing of the youtube release should coincide with your 'official' info release?
Mike Posted July 12 Posted July 12 Funky Broadway [SINGLE] Track: 1 of 2 Title: Funky Broadway Artist: The Villagers Label: Tramp Records Cat#: TR332 Formats: 7" Vinyl/Digital Digital Release: 3rd May 2024 Physical Release: 12th July 2024 About This Release: ** UNRELEASED DYKE & THE BLAZERS-COVER FUNK BOMB ** Taken from the forthcoming "Movements Vol.12" compilation album, "Funky Broadway" by The Villagers has never been released - until now.

Mike Posted July 13 Posted July 13 Thee Heart Tones - Forever & Ever Description: The A side “Forever & Ever” is an instant classic that lifts your mood and gets you moving. Lead singer Jazmine Alvarado’s unmistakeable and incredible voice dances over the band’s backing track while she professes her desire for a sincere and lasting love. The groove will get everyone on the floor swaying and the chorus sticks in your head long after the needle bumps up against the label. 1
Smudger Posted July 20 Posted July 20 I bet this one sells out izipho records Home / BRIDGE - CRYING FOR LOVE. Out 26 July BRIDGE - CRYING FOR LOVE. OUT 26 JULY £14.00 Add to your Wish List DETAILS Paul Tillman Smith is a significant figure within in the music community of Oakland/Berkeley, California. His connections and collaborations read like a who’s who of famous musicians. As leader of 70s Buddah Records group ‘Vitamin E’ and then onto ‘Bridge’, the subsequent band cut an album in 1981 for the CBS distributed Bang label that never saw the light of day. It was released by First Experience Records as a double LP and CD in 1999 and is recognised as being one of the finest unreleased discovery’s within its genre. IZIPHO SOUL are thrilled to release on a 7” for the first time two gems from this magnificent body of work. CRYING FOR LOVE written by Paul Tillman Smith and Michael Robinson is perfection personified, from the production through to the lyrical content - and of course the sublime vocals of Debravon Lewis (RIP) the tone of her voice will move you to tears. On the flip is LISTEN, penned by Paul Tillman Smith - a tour de force rendition by the late great Freddie Hughes with Sonny Lewis on sax, adding that extra touch of class. PRE-ORDER, out 26 July 1
