Billy Paul - Let 'Em In This was a great charity shop find by Hal and me. Soul singer Billy Paul had already had a massive hit on the Philadelphia International Label with Me and Mrs Jones in 1972, which was a platinum selling US no.1. In 1976 he released the album Let 'Em In . The title track is a cover of the Wings song, from their album Wings at the Speed of Sound also released in 1976. The original Wings [...]
It's not my policy to run reviews here that have appeared elsewhere, but due to space constraints my LA Times review of Young Jeezy's "The Recession" got severely truncated. These are just the vagaries of the business but unfortunately, the published version tilts more polemic than actual review. Yes, the original draft is venomous, slightly strident and still probably 200 words too short. But it's sincere and maybe a necessary counterweight to the patently absurd, forced intellectualization that critics project onto Jeezy. [...]
Jeezy may not have made the all-star S.W.U. cut, but he still swaggers with the best of them. Here Michael Phelps' favourite rapper takes a well-circulated Billy Paul track and spins some gold.

"The soul is born old but grows young. That is the comedy of life. And the body is born young and grows old. That is life's tragedy" That's right peoples...on this very day, Souled On is exactly 3 years and 2 days old. That may not seem like a very long span of time, but in blogger years, my ass is downright elderly...maybe even dead. I have every intention of aging gracefully, but just in case, feel free to periodically donate some of these . Hey...if Bootsy Collins could turn wearing [...]
After a hiatus of a few weeks, we return to the age of the Afro, the glorious times of sunny soul which talked about love and preached social-consciousness. The Blackbyrds - Walking In Rhythm.mp3 If I were to set my alarm clock to wake me up with a song to start my day on a high, this might be it. "Walking In Rhythm", which was released in 1975, exudes just the right measure of confident
Billy Paul: East written by T.W. Brown produced by Gamble-Huff from the album Going East
So last night I thought of a fun new way to do a review, and I think they'll be featured throughout this month of May. They're called 100 Word Reviews, and you guessed it, they will all have 100 words, including intro-bits, but not including links. These (and other things) will also be cross posted at 100words.com , a website along the lines of NaNoWriMo (but all year long). The goal is to write 100 words, no more, no less, every day for a month. I've done it twice before, and I'm planning [...]
Þegar ég var í 9. eða 10. bekk þá varð Acid Jazz það heitasta af öllu brennsjóðheitu. Meiraðsegja stelpur, sem framað þessu fíluðu bara afmælisgjafasafndiska með diskói eða úr Now! seríunni (og auðvitað 'Girls & Boys' með Blur) fíluðu Acid Jazz, og margar sögðust meiraðsegja vera farnar að fíla djass. Gisp! Allir pre-hipsterar og pre-listaháskólanemar brunuðu beint í Skífuna (foj!) að kaupa safndiskinn "Acid Jazz vol. 1" en í æsingnum keyptu einhverjir vol. 2 eða 3 sem voru öðruvísi skræpóttir, og voru --ó boj-- ekki með laginu sem varð flaggberi Acid Jazz hreyfingarinnar á Íslandi, laginu sem [...]
