Jay Nemor

George & His Gang @ O2 Arena Birmingham

It's Science of Soul time once again, and back to normal after last weeks pre-recorded show. I've got to say George Clinton, Parliament and Funkadelic were amazing, so for all the scopes please visit Mickey's site at: 2-Step Vinyl Soul for photos & review. In honor of their visit I thought it only right to include a couple of P-Funk tracks.. It was a hard choice.

I welcome another new sponsor to the Science of Soul this week; Sir Richard Davis, please check him out at www.sirsuits.com for a great range of menswear and something for the ladies.

The Featured album this week is Jay Nemor's excellent set ;"Just Sayin' Ole Folks Music," It came out last year and I have no idea how I missed it then, but I am putting that right this week. The Houston, Texas, basketball player, who now makes his home in Oslo, has a very jazzy vibe, in a Gil Scott-Heron kind-of-way, I think you will enjoy this set as much as I do.

Great to see Con-funk-shun are back recording, I have a track from their forthcoming album, also listen out for Tanya Holt's stunning single "I Am Not Broken" ... very powerful. Also have a couple of tracks from the excellent compilation album "Soul On The Real Side - Vol. 3"

Ooh, before I forget, this week I have a great documentary made in 2005 about George Clinton and his multi groups, found at the foot of this page.

Okay on with the music please share the link with a friend sit back and enjoy.
