another weekend, another Saturday Soul.  as i’m presenting a “nu-soul” special in January, i thought i’d try and keep this one as classic-focused as possible.  particular nods though to Syreeta and Rotary Connection, whose music i’ve only recently begun exploring, but wish i had years ago.

kira neris – open doors
gil scott-heron – we almost lost detroit
the rotary connection – the sea and she
sergio mendes & brasil 66 – for what it’s worth
minnie riperton – baby, this love i have
syreeta – black maybe
stevie wonder – golden lady
darondo – i want your love so bad
pointer sisters – yes we can can
young-holt unlimited – soulful strut
southside movement – i’ve been watching you
al green – here i am (come and take me)
la carnival – blind man (cut chemist remix)
wilson pickett – get me back on time
parliament – testify
naomi shelton & the gospel queens – what more can i do?
the wild magnolias – soul, soul, soul
diana ross – love hangover
orgone – i get lifted
crusaders – street life
erma franklin – whispers (getting louder)
lack of afro feat. roxie ray – closer to me
sharon jones & the dap kings – let them knock
the emotions – blind alley
lee fields & the expressions – love comes and goes
the rotary connection – love has fallen on me
