Momma's Back with another Cargo full of Soul

That's right y'all, Momma's back for a night of seductive treats & beasty soul. Nuff said, the flyer says it all...

As a bonus to this post, Iv also given you Another Cargo full of Soul. This is also the set I played live on Toon's Eastside Radio Show, The Vinyl Frontier on Wednesday night just past.

When putting a set together I like to give myself restrictions for the task at hand. Because I personally dug the last mix, I wanted to pull another Modern Soul mix out of the same bag. There were a few big tracks on some of the albums (yeah PC, my love is your love) that I didnt want to spunk on the first Cargo mix. You gotta leave a lil juice for your second shot.

Tracks are a combo of 7's, 12's & album cuts from plundered from Paul Carroll's personal collection & Des at DT Records

1. Jose Feliciano - Golden Lady

2. Isley Brothers - My love is your love

3. Margie Evans - Good thing queen pt 1

4. Kal ft Mr Tee - Whistle for you

5. William Eaton - Friends & lovers

6. Paulette Reaves - Its on me

7. Little Beaver - Concrete Jungle

8. David Ruffin - Love can be hazardous to your health

9. Archie Bell - Anytime is right

10. Rudy Love & the Love family - Disco queen

11. Love Committee - Just as long as I got you. (check out the recent Buster Rhymes sample)

Another Cargo full of Soul

Paradise Lost: Midnight Sun

Last night I had a vision.

We were in this beautiful warehouse.

It was filled with people, dancing and smiling UNDER THE MIDNIGHT SUN.

There was a guy in a lobster suit and a bear wearing a fez and lots of fruit. And the music... I've never heard music like that before. I asked who was playing and a voice said "Mikey Miutante, Brut33, DJ Silvio, James Bucknell, Harry Sounds and James Weirick".

Someone passed me a flyer, it read:

Cargo full of Soul

Here's a sample of my UK & French plunder from the recent travels. Big shout out to Paul Carroll for allowing me to rape, pillage & liberate his collection of its doubles and to Des for allowing me to embark on soul mining expedition of his 70K plus vinyl collection. I also unexpectedly stumbled upon a few gems on my Paris trip.

Iv given you a predominantly Modern Soul mix, with a touch of Sweet Soul and some boarder line disco tracks on the end. All tracks are album cuts. I also landed a rather substantial booty haul of 12" & 7" as well. I'll be sure to lay some of that love on you in the coming weeks.

Here's the Cargo thus far....

1. Bruce Cloud: Walk in my shoes

2. Isley Brothers: Little Miss Sweetness

3. The Voices of East Harlem: Cashing in

4. Peabo Bryson: Let the music play

5. David Ruffin: It takes all kinds of people to make the world

6. The Joneses: Sugar Pie Guys. pt 1

7. Grey & Hanks: Gotta put something in

8. LTD: Don'tcha know

9. Eddie Floyd: Feel my body

10. Wardell Piper: Don't turn away from me baby

11. Love Committee: Pass the buck

12. Gibson Brothers: Heaven

13. The Joneses: Sugar Pie Guys. pt 2

Fight on: ALI OMAR 16/03/58 to 23/06/09

I chose "Fight on" instead of RIP, because just like the great Mohammed Ali was a fighter, so was Ali Bin Mohammed Omar. Not often with his fist but always with his voice, his heart and his actions. Ali fought the good fight for the underdog, for the independent merchants, the indigenous, the young and the old. He stuck it to the man and the empty leaders when they turned their backs on the small guy, the common man and the underprivileged. Although small in stature himself, he roared like the lions in Zion with his words and actions.

This mix is a collection of smoking beats and leftfield soul that remind me of Ali and his attitude to life. Its emotionally charged, so sit back, roll a fat one, pour a long one and enjoy. I hope you can feel a little of what Im saying in these tracks.

I can see the selecta now, still fighting the good fight. Ali's on stage, taking the mic off MJ, pushing both him & Farrah aside and sitting them in their places as he now prepares to shake down the universe's biggest stage in a rubbadub style.
