#381 – The music is different here

These are some of my favourite soul and jazz records, it’s that simple. I looked at the soul & jazz records I had in my collection, picked out my absolute favourites and tried to glue some of those together in a 2 hour music only (*) mix that made sense. Did you know Beyondjazz started as a section of a weekly classic jazz show? From Latin to Soul to 50’s Jazz and Spiritual Jazz, this show brings you so much classic tunes.
Couldn’t resist to also sneak in two tunes from the just released Timeless DVDs, one from the José James & Jef Neve collab and a brand new tune from Build An Ark’s new lp.
I hope you enjoy. – oemebamo
