Charles Bradley and the Menahan Street Band

[Bob R]

Another great find on the Carson Daly Show.

This is what Soul should sound like. I hope he takes off like a rocket.

Thanks, Pauly.

I thought I had this internez thing figured out. :eusa-whistle:

Yeah, this forum's software doesn't let you embed arbitrary stuff like many others do. I actually had to invent the youtube button myself!

 

[PaulyT]

BTW, good music!

 

[Bob R]

ah, so you forget the embed stuff and use the addy?

Yup, just make sure that after the '?' there's only "v=...." and no other '&' symbols or anything after them. It's kind of a pain, but the best we can do.

Bob,

Charles Bradley is awesome. No Time For Dreaming is worth every penny if you don't have it already. Both of the tracks mentioned in this thread are on that album. Charles used to be the front man in a James Brown tribute band.


Daptone Records also offers samples of their other artists. They are an underrated label, especially if you guys are into Soul and/or retro Soul. A lot of their artists are on vinyl too. Budos Band is another Daptone artist I like, but they are more Afrobeat than Soul.
