Slave - Watching You
I couldn't post Inside Out by Odyssey without pairing it with this tune. Not only are both tunes incredibly similar but I think the lyrics also share a bit of a creepy vibe.
Has anybody got any insight into why these tunes are so alike?
The Shades Of Love - Keep In Touch (Body To Body)
Baby Huey - Hard Times
Blair - Nightlife

Odyssey - Inside Out
Is Inside Out one of the saddest songs that the usually joyous genre of disco ever threw out? Garry Mulholland wrote a fantastic summary of its lyrical content in his book "This is Uncool: The 500 Greatest Singles Since Punk and Disco"
Pleasure - Take A Chance
Brian Bennett - Solstice
Bohannon - Summertime Groove

Toto - Georgy Porgy
Well, we're back from our holidays.
Electric Elephant was immense fun and I want to give a shout out to the revellers on the Low Life boat party and big respect to Mudd for his awesome Sunday afternoon session.
Balearica is dead, long live Adriatica!
Stevie Wonder - Race Babbling
Baby Huey - Running
Two Lone Swordsmen - Shack 54
DB and BE
These guys are just so intriguing and been at the forefront of music for so long it's great to see them back out with a new album. Possibly more coherent than 'Life in the Bush of Ghosts', but special nevertheless.
And TV On The Radio are back out too - sonic treats for us all. Get buying.
David Byrne and Brian Eno - Poor Boy
TV On The Radio - Dancing Choose
Dam-Funk - Dam Funk
