New releases
Myles Sanko has made a career defining album with the brilliant ‘Just Being Me, which is certainly amongst the best British Soul albums ever recorded. You can catch Myles at Hoochie Coochie tonight if you happen to be anywhere near Newcastle Upon Tyne: The perfect venue to launch an labum of this quality! Leon Timbo has a really good album ‘What loves all about’, Tony Momrelle ‘Keep Pushing’ is extended to a deluxe version, he also appears on the Pbug album and Reel People music have another strong comp with ‘Soul Love 2016’. Peter White, Gerald Albright and Chuck Loeb have good smooth jazz albums.

Carmen Lundy at the Pizza Express tonight
Carmen Lundy is at the Pizza Express tonight and tomorrow if you haven’t seen her live, try to get tickets (there’s a few left) as she is fantastic. We will ask Carmen to sign some Cds for us and put these up for sale on Monday. She will also be my special guest on the show on Sunday from around 11am, so don’t miss that as apart from being one of the leading jazz vocalists she is a very interesting lady.
Future in stores
Don’t miss our next in stores from Kenya on Friday 11th November 6-8pm and Tristan Saturday 19th November. There’s always a good atmosphere at In stores at Soul Brother , so if you’ve not been to one come down and see what you’re missing.
