Taking A Break From Blogging

Had to take some time off after MediaFire closed down my account last year. Guess now time is coming to blog again. Sometime around October I will have a new post. Check back! Cheers!!

Texan-born Carleen Anderson should by rights be universally recognized as one of the greatest soul singers of her generation. Did vocals for quite few projects such as Incognito, Brand New Heavies , Full Flava, Jazzymatazz any many others.
 Up to Now is an essential acid-jazz compilation which makes Anderson's lack of success even more of a mystery.
Released in 2004 under EMI Music
Up to Now rar.

Vernessa Mitchell Feat.Rickey Dillard's New G. - Higher

Vernessa Mitchell shines again with a superb gospel tune relased under Steve Silk Hurley back in 1999.
Junior Vasquez also mixed in 2000 with his "Junior's Sunday Morning Marathon Mix" but I still prefer the classic versions from Mr.Silk Hurley indeed the best ones !!!
I also include 2 bonus tracks " Higer Demo Mix" and "Took my Life" Vasquez Lush Reprise mix. 
If you guys are wondering how I got these two mixes... I'd say I have my sources :-)

Salome de Bahia - Cabaret

Her first debut album released in 2002 under Yellow Productions and produced by Bob Sinclair. Cabaret, is an album that has some of her works from all over, including "Outro Lugar" but minus "Onde Ando Meu Amor". It starts out with the familiar prelude that will hopefully strike a memory for you from the Bossa Tres days before going into the clubby beat to her rendition of "Outro Lugar". "Amor E Alegria" is a cut that'll remind you of a winding road in Bahia, and "Que Reste-T-Il De Nos Amours" will have you dancing with that beautiful latin lady that winked at you. Well... me at least. "A Cidade Magica" is a fantastic slow track that highlights how sometimes Salome can tone down the power in her voice to give a far more romantic vibe. Starting out with the flute and gentle beat, it is yet another track for dancing with the lady of your life while overlooking the city lights. These are just a few of the tracks that I enjoyed; "Tormento De Amor" and "Viejo Cabaret" are also very good.
I also add a bonus track from her Taj Mahal single released in 2004.
Enjoy !!

Tafuri used to do such great songs in the past lately she's not of her can be found. Her last released "You won't ever Leave"(2007) under Eddie Baez mixes and production was something to be forgotten... Hopefully in a future she brings back her lovely voice in a decent house tune.
