Soul Bounce rave about JULIETTE

January 12, 2012

 

The heat is starting to build for Juliette’s ‘Love Me and My Hair’, with a great blog post at Soul Bounce.

They write: “Juliette combines classic-sounding jazz vocals with a more modern, soulful sound. The video for the single… sees Juliette taking to the stage in a 1920′s jazz club, which fits nicely with the track’s overall vibe. Definitely one to keep an eye on.”

LUTHER VANDROSS is Never Too Much

November 9, 2009

Luther-Vandross-Never-Too-Much-Th-486419

Let’s keep it real:  there will never be a soul vocalist finer than Luther Vandross. In the four years since his untimely passing, Luther continues to be sorely missed, and his amazing contribution to the soul music canon deeply felt.

There has been many compilations put out by the U.S. over the years – but none ever included the real gems that the UK soul fraternity love.

Until now!

Never Too Much – The Soul of Luther Vandross  has been compiled specifically with the UK market in mind. There are a couple of omissions (for legal issues), but this is his finest work on the Epic label.

The album was compiled by Soul Food’s own Steve Ripley (who worked with Luther since first days at Epic Records), with liner notes album prepared by  David Nathan.

Full tracklisting below:

CD1:

THE RUSH
THE NIGHT I FELL IN LOVE
GIVE ME THE REASON
BETTER LOVE 
SEE ME
DON’T YOU KNOW THAT
SHE LOVES ME BACK
IT’S OVER NOW
I WANTED YOUR LOVE                                                                                                       YOU MAKE ME A BELIEVER
IT’S ALL ABOUT YOU
PROMISE ME
ONCE YOU KNOW HOW
WAIT FOR LOVE

CD2:

NEVER TOO MUCH
BAD BOY/HAVING A PARTY
FOR YOU TO LOVE
SHE’S SO GOOD TO ME
SINCE I LOST MY BABY
ANY LOVE
MY SENSITIVITY
SUGAR AND SPICE
I’LL LET YOU SLIDE
IF ONLY FOR ONE NIGHT
BUSY BODY
CREEPIN
SO AMAZING
A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME
YOU STOPPED LOVIN ME

ALL the tunes, right?
