I would say it's more of a mix of groups like the free design, steely dan, prince, & sa-ra. (HOLY HYPERBOLE). Good shit either way.

Phonics what did you think of the steve spacek album from last year
For the Owasu:
It's a real "goofy" album at times, some songs are straight acoustic while other have the new-wave soul thing happening.
I never checked out the Steve Spacek LP. I can't really say I'm a big fan outside of "Eve" and the G.B. single. But to be honest, I'm not much of an album person as I once was either.
and oh shit...if we're talking about albums...how can I forget
At times apples and oranges but at times they both share a common sound. Still, you can't really compare the two.

Aloe Blacc > The Clipse

Perfect for (being properly depressed) in any weather. Definitely check their earlier EPs, too.

True Corinne Bailey-Rae story.
My girl does a bit of work for her management company, and tells me that "Connie" is completely free of any airs, graces or diva 'tude. So, she was touring the US recently, doing great business wherever she went. At an aftershow for one of her gigs - I think it was in LA - she was introduced to Stevie Wonder, who was full of praise for her album. Anyway, they talked for a while, exchanged maybe-we-should-work-together-sometimes and see-ya-laters, and continued on with their respective evenings. A few minutes later, Stevie was talking with someone else and suddenly cut short the conversation. "Who's crying?" he says, "I can hear a woman crying". Turns out that Corinne Bailey-Rae was stood in a corner of the room in tears, completely overwhelmed not only at having met one of her idols, but having had him talk to her on the same level. Not all that interesting in itself, but still kinda sweet.
