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..

Barry White Playing Your Game, Baby (20th Century) 1977
The man himself-Barry White. 'Playing Your Game, Baby' has been ripped off countless times by various artists. It's an absolute classic. If you don't know about these tunes, it's time to learn..

Stevie Wonder Ribbon In The Sky (Motown) 1982
Beautiful tune by the one and only Stevie Wonder. Every one of his 70's albums is a masterpiece, if you want real music go check 'em out. This man is a true genius. Much respect Stevie.

Loose Ends Stay A Little While, Child (Remix) (Zagora) (Virgin) 1986
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...
