I never really planned on doing another Covers, although it is one of the more popular mix series on the site. However, while listening to and removing the songs from my phone so I can start fresh in 2020 I began to discover so many covers I really dug and decided to share. The result is Covers 10, a nice, smooth, jazzy mix of songs that should make for an pleasurable listen while making your hops, skips and jumps this holiday season. Be safe while traveling and enjoy!

I’m preparing for my Jazz gig this Thursday and felt compelled to record some of my practice for the first Some Jazz since May. I’m surprised I’m 25 eps in but, this is just a testament to how much great Jazz music is out there. A lotta usual suspects on this one, some newfound treats and just an overall good cross section of the genre in it’s modern state. Enjoy
Check out this guest mix I did along with DJ/Producer, Flevans for Curator/DJ, Oonops on Brooklyn Radio. Oonops starts it off “with 90 minutes of brand new, upcoming and classic vinyl tracks from Dub, Soul, Funk, Disco, Boogie, Afrobeat to Instrumentals,” folowed by Flevans’ “who serves a delicious housy, funky, discotizing set for your dancing shoes.” I end things ” with a tasty cross-section from soul, funk to hip hop.” Check out the mix below, peep his site HERE and show my man Oonops some lo...

Loads of new goodies this week, including new music from Omar, Georgia Anna Muldrow, Murs and more. I went down a Mobb Deep rabbit hole and threw one of my favorite cuts in the mix along with a classic Philly cut by The Mountain Brothers. I was watching Wu Assassins, horrible CGI and all, and was reminded of how much I loved their song, Galaxies, back in '99. I share it with you now to enjoy on this one hour journey into my crates.
This episode of the Style Sessions showcases some of the new tunes that were released this past Friday as well as some favorites from the depths of my hard drive.

My first encounter with Herbie Hancock was in 1983, as a 6 year old, watching his Rockit video on MTV. Completely unaware of his 21 year history, I would either dance around the room or stand, mouth agape in awe of the mannequins/robots, DST’s scratching and that catchy synth line. It would be almost 20 years before I reconciled that the guy with the headphone mic in the video was the same guy who wrote Dolphin Dance, which was covered by Ahmad Jamal and sampled by No ID for one of my favorite C...

Welcome to Style Sessions where I'll share the music that's Decreasing MY Hard Drive Space. This episode was originally supposed to be 30 minutes, but I kept finding gems to stuff in here. That's a good problem! Enjoy, spread the word, comment, rate and all that there. Playlist at BamaLoveSoul.com
This episode of Some Jazz begins with a segment of a Dizzy Gillespie interview I discovered yesterday which added more rationale to a social media status I happened to read this week. I'm sorry, I cant recall who wrote the status or which platform it appeared on but the status advocated for piano being taught in schools to provide a firm foundation for budding musicians of all genres. I'm not a musician, so I don't know why the status stuck with me, but hearing Diz speak on its benefits days lat...
I remember picking up Robert Glasper's In My Element and being surprised to hear the Hip Hop, soul and elements of other genres dispersed throughout the album. Although, already a Jazz fan, I was elated at hearing my generation's music represented in an art form that was previously, largely guarded from exploration and breaking form. It seems from that moment until now, as the 2010s come to a close, Jazz has reversed its position and also permeated itself into the prevalent genres of music. Glas...
In my ongoing process of cleaning up all of my music in all of its mediums, I found myself playing CD-Rs in my Jeep to determine which were OK to discard. Kool & The Gang’s Sea of Tranquility begins to play and I’m listening, trying to figure out who did this instrumental cover of D’angelo’s Send It On. (Yeah, right?) I did a Shazam (lol) and when I saw it was K&TG, the idea to do this mix was born (Inspiration is everywhere). I knew a lot of the samples used, but went to whosampled.com ...

The 2000LB Crate Podcast is the vehicle I will use to share some of the music I purchase, receive from submissions, or discover as I tag & organize my hard drive. Tagging and organizing my hard drive has proven an equally tedious and fulfilling task as I've unearthed so many treats I'd simply forgotten about. 2017 has also been a good year for music with so many good tunes being released. Shouts out to Simon Harrison' Basic Soul Show and GQ tha Teacha for keeping me up on a lot of albums/sin...

As Summer turns to Fall, the weather has been perfect for liberating my Jeep by removing its doors and hard top. The only thing able to improve this feeling is the accompaniment of good music and I’ve created an incredible soundtrack for driving my Jeep in this fantastic weather. It’s also great for travels in your convertible or traditional automobile. I’ve been spending a lot of time organizing my music lately, allowing me to dust off some old jams to share alongside some of the really fascina...
