New releases and pre-orders 8th of March 2019

It is an incredible week for new releases , by far the best so far this year, something for everybody here.
RC and the Grits will be known to many of you as Erykah Badu’s backing band and they follow up their fantastic ‘Feel’ from 2016 with another really good album on Ropeadope ‘Analog World’. It features N’dambi, Carmen Rodgers and many more singers plus check the killer instrumental ‘Agitation’ . Mark De Clive Lowe visits his ‘Heritage’ with his jazziest album to date another really strong album on Ropeadope.. Sugaray Rayford returns with some more contemporary Southern Soul and there is a strong retro soul album from Alexis Evans. Little Simz is a new Soul/Hip Hop artist whose album will appeal to those you like Anderson.Paak. There is a nice Gospel soul album from Doobie Powell and we are back in stock of Aaron Abernathy whilst stocks last.
Good new jazz albums from Joey DeFrancesco ft Pharoah Sanders, Caesar Frazier, Jeremy Pelt, Bill Laurance and more.
Spiritual Jazz vol 9 Blue Notes is possibly the best so far in the series, the 2 x 2lp sets are going to be very limited and there is a 2cd set. There is also the new Masterpiece vol 27 CD.
Great to see the final Undisputed Truth Motown albums on CD at last plus other good reissies on CD and a Bar-Kays Definitive collection 3CD set.
