Morpheus Soul {Love Is...The Lost Tape: Side C}

"I've always gone against the grain, Something in my soul" [Diggs Duke].



This is the first of two Bank Holiday Specials that I've decided to bless your ears with this weekend soul people. It's the third of the "Love is..." series and I chose to give it the sub-heading of "The Lost Tape" because I originally started putting this together a few months back, but due to a power cut half way through recording, it wasn't saved so I put it on hold until now. I changed it up a little bit, made a few alterations and finally it's complete. So hop aboard and let's raise the anchor and raise our glasses as we take another extended cruise where; today...Love once again is definitely the main course. On this special edition of your favourite artists, favourite pod-cast  you'll begin your journey by inserting the cassette {side c}, pressing play, where you'll be greeted by sublime music and Morpheus Soul favourites featuring Joy Jones, Floetry, Vivian Green, Lewis Taylor, HEAVy, Peven Everett, Tony Ozier, Bilal Salaam, Jaguar Wright, Choklate, Frank McComb, Algebra Blessett, Jamie Hawkins, Erik Rico, Lady Alma, The Politik, Esperanza SpaldingVenus Malone, Iman Williams, Diggs Duke, Marlon Saunders, Platinum Pied Pipers, Häzel, Braxton Brothers & Soul:ID.

Also featured is the Brand New Single from the simply brilliant Colonel Red from his forthcoming album "Red Light" and an unreleased joint from 2006 from songstress Támar.

Please Feel Free to Share & Spread The Love. Peace & Blessings.
