Soul… A very soulful seventies session hear.. featuring the human voice in many wonderful forms. About 1979 i discovered amongst my hippie brothers vinyl collection the Ann Peebles album ‘I Can’t Stand The Rain’ and my curiosity was well rewarded! Consistent and fully charged with cut after cut, her album has remained at the front of my Soul box always, alongside other excellent offerings such as Gloria Scott’s ‘What Am I Gonna Do’ and Marvin Gaye’s ‘What’s Going On’ and artists like Al Green, Curtis Mayfield, Terry Callier, Donny Hathaway and Syl Johnson. Soul is everywhere, its the valuable essence of all good and authentic music, from Folk to Jazz! And funny enough i was deeply into Soul music before discovering Jazz… this session was aptly recorded at 6am in the morning while the sun was coming up and warming us up nicely for the Valentines session coming along soon!!! Enjoy…

Mashed Potato IV
Soulful jazziness perfect for a Sunday with JazzDJ (128Kbps)
Mashed Potato III
Here’s a gem of a set by yours truely JazzDJ, seriously smashed by this point!!! This session (part 2 of 3 that night), fuelled by a bottle of red wine and some glasses of cognac, finds JDJ getting obsessed with a particular soundbite and amusingly singing along to the last track… I cried with laughter listening back to this one! Still worth a listen (even at 64Kbps) just to give you an idea of what to expect… Peace.
Just in case you have not been able to tune in yet to our live monthly Mashed Potato sessions on Radio Nova Lujon. Mashed Potato: A live monthly broadcast from London and Berlin only on Radio Nova Lujon with JazzDJ & Mr Phipson the first Sunday of every month. These session’s just keep getting better… mash-ups of an eclectic funky-jazzy-baile-soulfull groove, who knows what will happen! With circa 100 listeners tallied so far from all over the world, this is becoming a regular night-in for people who just like to get mashed ;-)
the Life session… life is unusual, you never know what’s going to happen! No matter what your situation life affects us all! Just when you think you know life, it can kick you down to the ground, or lift you up to the heavens. With this eclectic session, a milestone jazzcast number 30, and as a special way of celebrating all of life’s downs and ups, I have picked out some tracks all with Life in the title. We have jazz, soul, samba, soundtrack, funk and disco in the mix. Unusual i know!!! This session begins with an ending and ends with a beginning… Read the rest of this entry »
