This has been the sole musical footprint of this single's protagonists Kenny White (lead vox), Inesther Collins (background vox) and MC Baby Blue (rap). But that makes this fantastic single even more precious/attractive. Have fun with this spuriously underrated Swingbeat/Funk banger!

I spontaneously decided to bring you a second post this weekend: Some nice stuff from Swingbeat pioneers Levert. The music is accompanied by lots of crackles. But hey, this vinyl is more than 30 years old and has been on heavy rotation over the years 😉. The song is still fresh, that's what counts. Enjoy!

Here's another rare cassette of my collection which I'm very proud of. When you see the cover and read the title of this album you would think it's a RnB/Swing affair. Instead it consists of finest Contemporary R&B. When you need some music for romantic moments this is the right soundtrack. 9 of 10 tracks are high class Soul gems, Honey Bunny is the only uptempo track on this album!

I know that all you blog visitors/followers out there are not the biggest fans of cassette rips. But for me cassettes are the most honest music medium: Although often unpredictable in sound quality they're always pure, soulful and unique. This rare CS (which I'm glad to own) contains the wonderful Soul tune Kiss U All Over and the devastating, 8 minutes long Club Mix of Uptown Lady (which isn't on the Uptown Lady single I brought you some time ago). Give this one a chance & enjoy!
