Real Soul Music For Your Sanity: Merry Christmas Part Two

It's good to know that in the age of Autotune, there's still good music worthy enough to be called SOUL. Here are some artists that I've been following for the past 5 years or so who lay can it down.


Ledisi - Give Love On This Christmas Day 2008



Conya Doss - What I'd Do For You 2008


Liv Warfield - I Decided 2007



Liv Warfield - Groove DJ 2007

But this NOW! Embrace Me @ CD Baby


Vikter Duplaix - I Got You 2003



Fertile Ground - You 2005



Vikter Duplaix - Make A Baby 2007



Dennis Taylor - Want 2002



Cynthia Laine - Feel Me 2008



Rahsaan Patterson - Feels Good 2007



Jimmy Salvemini - Love Won't Let Me Wait (LIVE) 2006

You might remember Jimmy from 1984, the year Luther Vandross discovered him at 15 on Star Search and produced his album soon after. I remember buying the album after the controversial car accident in which Jimmy's brother was killed. Luther was driving and Jimmy was also in the car. Check out his new 2008 release, Self Expression at CD Baby.


Galliano feat. Omar - Golden Flower 1992

British soul saviour Omar has been on my radar for years. Here's a 1992 joint followed by a more recent release.


Omar feat Angie Stone - Be Thankful 2002



Platinum Pied Pipers - 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover 2005
