Calvin Richardson

It's Science of Soul time once again and this week I will be featuring Calvin Richardson's excellent new album "I Am Calvin," along with new music from; Keith Sweat, Ty Macklin, Frank McComb Charlie Wilson and Joe Leavy, in fact quite a lot of good new music around right now and I am running a bit late featuring some of it, it's been a busy couple of weeks, lol.

Just picked up the new book from Marshall Thomson of The Chi-Lites, looks like an interesting read, it's easily available from Amazon and it's titled appropriately "Last Man Standing," If you haven't had a chance to watch the excellent edition of the TVOne's show Unsung featuring the group it's well worth checking out. You may remember I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I, along with the technical skills of Mickey recorded an interview with Pat Lewis, this ladies career is just amazing, you wont wanna miss this, it's on the SOS site now, click here or find Pat Lewis Special in the pages index, where you will find other earlier Specials, I've posted the link on my Face Book page already.

You might have seen some of the great new advertisements on my FB pages for the show, I must thank Ms Jay Duncan of Vancouver in Canada for her hard work and time and as always Mickey's time and patience in keeping the site up and running at such a high standard its a vital part of the Science of Soul.

OK, time for the good stuff sit back enjoy and share the link...click here 4 podcast

Calvin Richardson's Biography:

"Calvin Richardson is one of the most talented artists in the business.” – Charlie Wilson

Whether categorized as “retro-soul,” neo-soul or simply soul, the decade-plus trend of resurgent soul music has only accelerated recently. Artists as diverse as Janelle Monet (doing a James Brown homage on David Letterman), Raphael Saddiq (who evoked Motown on his most recent album), Leela James, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, Raheem DeVaughn, Amy Winehouse and more have ridden the soul bandwagon. For Calvin Richardson, affectionately dubbed The Soul Prince, soul music is more than a trend or even a musical style; it is a set of values that he has been living since even before his debut release in 1999.
