Ladies Of Soul

Welcome to the first edition of the Science of Soul for 2016. I closed last year with a tribute to the Men of Soul, so it's only fitting that this week a tribute to the ladies is made with a step into the new year with the Ladies of Soul. Just as last week, this show could have been lasted all day and I would still not have had room for everything I'd wanted to play, so if I missed out a favorite of yours, apologies in advance, sincerely hope you enjoy my selection on the day .. on another day it would probably be entirely different.

Reunited

Sad news to report with the passing of Ms Natalie Cole, who was just 65 years old, though her life was somewhat troubled which is often the case when your parent was an Iconic figure in the music business, that aside she has left a legacy that will be treasured. Natalie will be reunited with her Father Nat 'King' Cole ... what a beautiful thought. On a happier note I wish you all a new year filled with love and adventures that make you smile, remember each day is a blessing .. extra RIP to William Guest who was a founding member of Gladys Knight's Pips group too.
OK sit back and enjoy the Ladies of Soul..please remember to tell a friend to tell a friend ... It's rude not to share.
