133 - Solidarity - SoulJazz Orchestra

Now, just in case U are not familiar with the SoulJazz Orchestra, U ought to know that this Canadian bunch of horn players slash vocalists (slash Ganja lovers) are practitioners of the delicate art of musical eclecticism.

I suppose most fellow listeners would be surprised to find out these folks ain't no Africans, or even 'colored'! All we get here is a 6 pack of white northern - yet hot blooded - dudes (one of them is indeed a lady...), who fancy rhythms so much they needed to do something serious about it.
So they came up with a solid salad of AfroBeat, Soul, Jazz, Funk and Reggae. It's tasty, it's spicy and will probably make U wanna move Ur dancing feet.

I had been considering a post dedicated to their 2010 release, Rising Sun, which is a pretty good album overall, if not more... so that might come up someday.

However, a coupla days ago, I haphazardly stumbled upon their latest offering... and after an avid listening, I knew I would be posting Solidarity without delay!

2012 - SOLIDARITY

Suffice to say this one has got a bold number of awesome Reggae tracks and U should shove it up Ur iPods coz that is just the kinda soundz U and I need to imbibe while cruising the wacky weird world...             out there.  

N'joy!

Alac!                                  

132 - Spiritual State - Nujabes

Uno the best thing about blogging again after nearly 2 years of absence?

Well, I dig up new stuff from the free web and I give my brain some unheard soundz on a regular basis, which is sooo precious!
Seems like the mind needs to be fed with unknown items in order to stay young and open.

That's how I discovered Nujabes and Uyama Hiroto when I started this blog, and now it is pretty amazing to find out a new (at least to me) release by Hydeout Prods as I do my come back here.

Fans be amazed! Nujabes tracks keep on coming post mortem and this album has a few gems in it, as usual.

131 - 45's - Hugh Masekela

Voila! I have been through the whole thing of re-uploading. I found out during the process that my links were being killed faster than my uploading rate.

I wonder what's left of the work I just finished in fact, and I now have to verify all the links to find out. So I decided to get an account on 4Shared.com in order to get my very own uploading space and hopefully a much more durable and safer space to host the files for this blog thingy.

I hope that it will be convenient for y'all to download for free from 4Shared.com. 

I also recommend getting an account at RealDebrid for all Ur downloading purposes.
Then U can convert links from 4Shared and a big bunch of other host sites
 into easily resumable premium links.

For now, I can't wait any longer to share with U something new, even though it's an old one.

So here we go: A couple of 45's from South Africa and from before I was born.

       Just four tracks indeed, and that's my re-birth post?

Well, wait until U get them playing and U'll also feel it is deserved. Or at least U should. 

That's right!
