Brand New Heavies

Amel Larriuex

Whom else do you lot like?

Should I rephrase the question? LOL.

At the time of 'equal rights' during the movement of the 60s, One of my favorite R&B/SOUL classics is, NEWDAY: written by, J.Mayo Williams & Buddy Johnson.

Very good list. Those are quite popular.

Check out Frank McComb if you get a chance. Decent shizzle.

i'd second these - two quality outfits producing some fantastic modern soul/funk.

i'd also like to suggest:

Ed Meme & The Forms
Opensouls
Alice Russell
Nicole Willis & The Soul Investigators
Belleruche
Little Dragon (check out their debut album - not strictly a soul record, but there are some beautiful tunes on there)

i'll add more as i think of them, but that's a few off the top of me head...

Baby Charles,
in a similar vein to Sharon & the Dap-Kings but still worth their weight.

Some names I am not familiar with, definitely food for thought.
