Where Did Our Love Go is the second studio album by Motown singing group the Supremes, released in 1964. The album includes several of the group's singles and B-sides from 1963 and 1964. Review by Lindsay Planer ...the first to significantly impact the radio-listening and record-buying public. It effectively turned the trio -- who were called the 'No-Hit Supremes' by Motown insiders -- into one of the label's most substantial acts of the 1960s. Undoubtedly, their success was at least in part due to an influx of fresh material from the formidable composing/production team of Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier and Eddie Holland (HDH). They had already proven themselves by presenting "(Your Love Is Like A) Heatwave" to Martha & the Vandellas and providing Marvin Gaye with "Can I Get a Witness." Motown-head Berry Gordy hoped HDH could once again strike gold -- and boy, did they ever... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJMx8wSnW64&list=PLMkmKZouSKgGz90B3SJpHgmhS2kH4tc6w&index=1 #TheSupremes #Motown #Soul #Music #DianaRoss #60sPop

Color Me Human by John KaSandra, released on Respect in 1970. Another one of Kasandra's leftfield sophisticated soul records, a bit hard to pin down, but still Righteous stuff. Recorded for Stax's Respect label, and featuring another installment in Kasandra's "Mose" song cycle -- "Mose part 3", which runs for 15 minutes, and takes up all of side 2. Other tracks include "Poor Black Woman Poor Black Man", "You God", and "Walk Tall (In This Here Land)" - Dusty Groove https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uf-qgW0pFY&list=RD1uf-qgW0pFY&start_radio=1 #JohnKaSandra #Stax #Soul #Music #Funk

The New Lee Dorsey by Lee Dorsey, released on Stateside in 1966. Review by Richie Unterberger Less than a year had passed between this and Lee Dorsey's previous LP, Ride Your Pony, and Allen Toussaint was again the prime creative force, writing material and co-producing. The sound, however, had definitely taken a step in a funkier direction. It's still lighthearted, though not lightweight, soul music with a New Orleans bounce, paced by the Top Ten hit "Working in a Coal Mine" and also including the Top 30 follow-up "Holy Cow." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCuWUwu1Rh8&list=RDfCuWUwu1Rh8&start_radio=1 #LeeDorsey #AllenToussaint #TheMeters #NewOrleans #Funk #Soul #Music

Ride Your Pony - Get Out Of My Life Woman by Lee Dorsey, released on Amy in 1966. Irving Lee Dorsey (December 24, 1924[1] – December 1, 1986)[2] was an American pop and R&B singer during the 1960s. His biggest hits were "Ya Ya" (1961) and "Working in the Coal Mine" (1966). Much of his work was produced by Allen Toussaint, with instrumental backing provided by the Meters. - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b8YCdkuiBQ&list=OLAK5uy_mS4-mI0PtiRFHSKp0kAK5sYEn3rn8AFZ0 #LeeDorsey #AllenToussaint #ArtNeville #TheMeters #NewOrleans #Funk #Soul #Music

"Rescue Me" is a #rhythmAndBlues song first recorded and released as a single by American #soul singer-songwriter #FontellaBass in 1965. The original versions of the record, and #BMI, give the songwriting credit to Raynard Miner and Carl William Smith, although many other sources also credit Bass herself as a co-writer. It would prove the biggest hit of Bass's career, reaching #1 on the #RAndB charts for four weeks and placing at #4 on the #Billboard #Hot100. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFI7eQt3ghI

The Never Ending Impressions is an album by the American soul music group The Impressions which was released on January 9, 1964. Review by John Bush The Never Ending Impressions, the first record to boast the full collaborative power of Johnny Pate and Curtis Mayfield, pushed the idea of the trio as a supper-club act, with covers of "Satin Doll," "September Song," and "Lemon Tree" among the questionable -- if not misguided -- covers. The group's immense talents prevent any of these versions from being complete failures, but they sound much more assured on Mayfield originals like the ballad "I'm So Proud," a Top 20 hit on both the R&B and pop charts. Scattered among the adult pop chestnuts are a few good songs, including the up-tempo "Sister Love" and a pair of great overlooked Chicago soul nuggets: "Girl You Don't Know Me" and "A Woman Who Loves Me." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7Cbm7p9y6I&list=OLAK5uy_l6OMw7dNwOrkjdlOjf-x9pz9y49NGigCs #CurtisMayfield #TheImpressions #JohnnyPate #ChicagoSoul #Soul #Music

Meet the Temptations is the debut studio album by the Temptations for the Gordy (Motown) label released in 1964. Review by Bruce Eder The Temptations' first LP, released three years into the group's history with Motown, is also a great record, even though it wasn't really an album so much as a collection of their early singles, hooked around their then new hit, "The Way You Do the Things You Do." Those expecting the classic Temptations sound should also be aware that David Ruffin is absent from all of the tracks except "The Way You Do the Things You Do," which was cut just after he joined, replacing Elbridge "Al" Bryant. The LP represents the evolution of the act and its sound, as well as a succession of producers... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJiWcJrgMUU&list=PLTGZr8YmZMtv-vzqgtToSJpvg6nrnBwuz&index=1 #Temptations #Motown #Soul #60spop #SmokeyRobinson #Music

It also isn’t lost on me that the opening riff is the most Prince Riff in all of Prince Riffdom since Ready For The World. #DAngelo #RealMusicByRealMusicians #Soul

This has been in my head all weekend. And after the You’ll Hear It episode on Brown Sugar, I don’t think it’s leaving anytime soon… D’Angelo Lady. Pure lush groove https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBB8valskCQ #DAngelo #RealMusicByRealMusicians #Soul

A Natural Woman is a 1969 album by Peggy Lee. It was arranged and conducted by Bobby Bryant and Mike Melvoin. John Engstead took the cover photograph. Review by John Bush A Natural Woman was her most successful fusion yet, thanks to the work of arrangers/conductors/upstarts Mike Melvoin and Bobby Bryant (neither of whom were true youngsters, though Melvoin had apparently gleaned much from session work with the Beach Boys, Curt Boettcher, and Judy Collins)...Lee does perform a superb version of Randy Newman's "I Think It's Going to Rain Today" (Newman actually arranged "Is That All There Is?"), and utterly transforms the one standard from an earlier era, Billie Holiday's classic "Don't Explain.".. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxF7V56mmxc&list=RDBxF7V56mmxc&start_radio=1 #PeggyLee #RandyNewman #60sPop #Soul #VocalJazz #BobbyBryant #MikeMelvoin #FemaleSinger #Music

#NowPlaying #FalsettoFriday #soul #LutherVandross - "Take You Out" (2001) I don't always love this man's material, but I'll never fail to give props to his velvet tenor - especially when it's this song and he's improvising with a little #falsetto. For once, #JayZ and I agree: this is a late-life Luther stone classic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqJtgjsruj8
