DaPaul

Welcome to this new edition of the Science of Soul, as regular listener will know, I pick a recent released album as my 'album of the week', but today it's a little different!  I have chosen an album that came out last year, "Soulful Spirit" by Dapaul, it's one that got past me on it's release, but just too good not to bring to your attention mow. A song from Gwendolyn Collins' latest set "Storyteller, The Simple Thing" is also in todays show, but I 'll be looking in more depth at this one next week.

The Glades years!

I was feeling extra nostalgic, so there's a big chunk of old school classics you might just not have heard in awhile, listen out for Eddie Kendricks' "Each Day I Cry A Little," I can't find the words to describe the beauty of this song, and the passing of time has just made it even better. My Soul brother Melvin Jordan as just recorded an interview with one of my favorite artists Benny Latimore look-out it will be coming up on his show in the next few weeks I'll make sure you get a link from the S-O-S website. If your not familiar with www.legend107radio.com out of Tampa Bay, Florida, it's the Station that the Science of Soul is syndicated to, because you might just want to check it out.  They run a great program of shows, everything from Gospel to R&B, there's sure to be something that floats your boat. Going back to Benny Lattimore  because he's also included in this weeks playlist, you will hear a classic from his past entitled "Rain From The Sky."
