Oh my, so many incredible new albums dropping on Tidal every week.

This track samples the Maxwell CLASSIC ‘Fortunate’ which isn’t on Tidal unfortunately but here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0fAEJQtqnU) is the gem in low-fi :joy:

Thanks, enjoyed the Elli Ingram today.

And yeah, the Kelela album is great, very cool to see Warp putting out albums like that.

I’m behind on all your recommendations @dabassgoesboomboom, but is it possible no one has mentioned the SZA album yet? Seems impossible :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Hehe cheers Mike. I definitely posted about SZA’s latest album in the main ‘Listening Now’ thread but probably haven’t since I started this thread.

This is a great reminder to play it again this weekend! :sunglasses: :man_dancing: :dancer:

Definitely one of my favorite “retro soul” albums of all time, easily holds it’s own against the Daptone/Winehouse stuff imo.

He’s also one of the best live performers I’ve ever seen, a real showman with an incredibly tight band.

A great article recently on him that a lot of soul artists were re-tweeting @Rugby @mike

An all-star cast on this one. The unmistakable sound of Kenny G on the sax :saxophone:

Clapton on the :guitar:

This just sounds so BIG. It could be released today with the production as it is and be a hit.

Nearly 40 years old !! Amazing. There are so many 70’s recordings that still sound so fresh today.
