Petawane

RIP Sharon Jones
Thanks for visiting The Science of Soul. It's with much sadness I have to report the loss of yet another soul legend, Ms Sharon Jones. Sharon has done so much to keep the soul flame burning for the last decade along with the Daptone label and her legacy and place in soul history is secure. Rest in Heaven Sharon Jones. On this weeks show my Featured Artist is Harlem, New York's own Petawane, I'll be spinning 3 tracks from this immensely talented guy, some of you will know these songs, but if like me you missed them, your in for a real treat! Representing the ladies corner this week I have new music from Ms Leela James, this lady can do know wrong for me and I am looking forward to her forthcoming album. Southern Soul lady Nellie Tiger Travis is back with a brand new single titled "All The Lovers," just my opinion, but I think it's her best yet! You will remember her from the hit record called "Mr Sexy Man,"  a tune from just a couple of years ago, somewhat a novelty song, but this new one is far more real and hope it proves to be a hit for her.


Gene Rice's new set titled"G3" his first in quite awhile, plus I have another track from last weeks feature Ty Juan from the album "Signature," just gets better the more you hear it. Making his 'SOS' debut is B Hollywood  with his latest offering, it's a nice mellow affair, just how I like them. "Right Here Right Now" is getting some great reviews two. Enough chat from me except to say my apologies if you tried to reach in the Studio during the live show, this and next weeks show have had to be pre-recorded due to my Stateside trip. Music time just hit the play button and enjoy...
