Donny Hathaway is now recognised as one of the all time great Soul singers and songwriters.
The discovery of two full CD’s of previously unreleased material is one of the highlights of 2013 in our music. They are included within the ‘Never my Love-the anthology’ 4cd set along with all his duets with Roberta Flack and a disc of his classic recordings remastered for the set. An Essential Purchase.
There is also a fantastic 34 CD Box Set featuring every album that Herbie Hancock recorded for Columbia between 1972-88 individually sleeved.
Tony Momrelle is one of the leading Uk Soul singers and its great to hear him singing his own compositions on his ‘Fly’ EP. There’s two interesting compilations ‘Americana 2’ and ‘Remixed with love by Joey Negro’ and another batch of Tabu label re-issues including the Alexander O’Neal Christmas album. James Day has agreed to sign a few copies of his brilliant ‘Seasons and Reasons’ CD due later in the month so if you would like one of these please pre-order here.
For vinyl lovers there are some good Reggae reissue Lp’s ,an early Motown comp on 180gm, a soulful house 12″ from the reel People music and four classic Northern soul double A side re-issues.
