Erykah Badu Bag Lady (Remix) (Universal) 2000



>Not sure if this blog is gonna change direction..70's tunes...streetsoul.....now we're into the 2000's..Trying to post good tunes so when people log in every day or two they can press play and reminisce and feel good! Hope everyone enjoys the ride anyway!

This is one of my favourite artists Erykah Badu with 'Bag Lady' which uses the killer Soul Mann & The Brothers sample that Dr Dre used on his 'Xxplosive' track. Not sure where this mix is from but it wasn't on the cd or 12" that I had..

Taken from the album 'Zagora' this is a nice Loose Ends tune from the mid eighties. Typical sounding 808 beats and some nice Middle Eastern sounds as the cover also appears to suggest...
