Guest thenogger Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I have just had the pleasure of listening to the album by the late great SOUL GODDESS " TY KARIM " and what an incredible album. I personally think it is the best album i have heard for a long, long time. I normally play any album once then put it away but this album up to now i have played it about 10 times since TUESDAY 9th DEC and it is only the 13th now. What a great soulful XMAS present, it blew me away totally AWESOME. REGARDS TO ALL. " thenogger " Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ian Dewhirst Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 (edited) Well Christmas came slightly early this year so I treated myself to a copy of the "The Complete Ty Karim: Los Angeles Soul Goddess". A blinding release and obviously should be in every fanatical Soul fans collection! Full marks to Ady and the Ace/Kent team for the Soul release of the year IMO! Just one slightly perturbing issue surfaced however............. As I was listening to the mighty impressive lungs of Ms Karim, I thought I'd take a closer look at her. So I looked @ the cover and couldn't help noticing the interesting placement of her left boob. Is it really that high up? Or was she bunching it up with the strategic positioning of her left arm? And where's her right one? Questions, questions........ Hell of a lung on her anyway! Essential purchase! Also, many thanks and the highest regards to Mark Bicknell for hosting one of Starpoint Radio's most-listened to shows - The Soul Shack. Great stuff Mark, we'll miss you on Sundays and best for the future! Ian D Edited December 20, 2008 by Ian Dewhirst Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Totally agree and thanks also to Mark Bicknell and others on this topic for bringing to my attention the sheer quality of the album. Many standout tracks but the slower Lighten Up, Ain't That Love Enough,All At Once, All In Vain, Keep On Doin' Watcha' Doin' and both versions of Wear Your Natural Baby are my faves.
