MARLENA SHAW "The Spice Of Life" (1969)

You know that it's never too late to discover an essential album. It just happened to me. I few weeks ago, I was listening to the new Blue Note Trip serie Vol.10 with the song "Woman Of The Ghetto". I had to find more about Marlena Shaw. What a great Soul album!

My favorite tracks in order

REBECCA FERGUSON "Heaven" (2012)

It's undeniable, you will say "This sounds like Adele (or Duffy)" and maybe it will annoys you. Maybe you'll say "Oh, just another X Factor wannabe talent". But the real question here is; is it good? Is it good music? Does she have a good voice? The answer might be yes, so enjoy a talented woman who's got voice and a good Neo-Soul album.
