It’s not often we mention Jimi Hendrix and Trap music in the same sentence. Or Brixton and George Benson. In this case Mansur Brown embodies all of these. An integral part of the groundbreaking Yussef Kamaal album, he now releases his debut album on Black Focus Records. As Thundercat claims the Bass Guitar, Robert Glasper the keys, the 21 year old claims...
Appearing first in the UK in 1968, This Is Soul was an immediate success. The compilation features the best of Stax and Atlantic artists, at a time when mainstream radio was not focused on soul music, and buying a compilation like this was UK’s first introduction to the great soul music from the US.

The Meters is the debut album by the American funk group The Meters. It was released in May 1969, the first of eight albums by the band. The band's early works were developed through improvisation.

Otis Redding will always be the King Of Soul. No vocalist before or since has ever had the power to project emotions like Otis did, or to convey the very essence of soul. Now, 50 years since his untimely death, it is more than appropriate to visit again the Great Man's music via some of his most electrifying live performances. These vintage shows have not...

Fat Possum Records is pleased to offer this vinyl reissue of Syl Johnson's classic 1973 album Back For A Taste Of Your Love, the first of four records he cut with Willie Mitchell and Hi Records. The powerful 10-song set is home to the hits 'Back for a Taste of Your Love' and 'We Did It.'
A lean, tough set that was not only a triumph for Ann Peebles, but illustrated how the Hi label had surpassed its crosstown Stax rival for quality Memphis soul in the early '70s. The guitars are spare, funky, and bluesy, the horn section punchy, and the material far earthier and down-home than the increasingly formulaic grooves at Stax.
After a few short spells in jail for narcotic offenses during the mid-'70s, O.V. Wright re-emerged in 1977 with Into Something (Can't Shake Loose). It was his first album for Hi, although producer Willie Mitchell had overseen many of his Backbeat sides from the earlier days.
There were so many competent records coming out of Memphis that any burgeoning greatness can only be detected by a careful listening. Ann Peebles deserves that kind of extra care. Her style is so subtle and economical that the finer qualities of her talents might be passed over as being merely competent.
I Can't Stand the Rain is an album by Ann Peebles. It was released on the Hi label in 1974. Includes a 12" glossy paper insert with liner notes and mp3 download code.
