How is the live Soul scene in the UK right now?
 
Diane Charlemagne's fucking ace. She's about seven foot tall and she's got a speaking voice like Babs from Babs' Cabs (Royston Vasey-r).





Speaking of top Manc lasses, this is what Denise Johnson was up to before she joined Primal Scream











The Rosaline Joyce album was big BITD.











Opaz











I've posted these Paul Johnson joints before. The best mix of Sayin' Somethin' doesn't seem to be on YT











 
Manc classic. I still bump this on the regular. There's a good Mark Kamins mix that's a bit housier.
