A full new LP of classic McNeir is an absolute treat for his many soul fans; particularly in Europe where he is so admired. Ronnie recorded over twenty tracks with Mickey Stevenson's production company in 1971. Eleven of these were featured on his RCA LP \"Ronnie McNeir\", but another ten were left in the vaults. The title track, 'Let's Make A Move' is an urgent, exciting funk sound, composed with Ronnie's frequent writing partner, Andre Moore. 'I'm Sorry' is an earlier version of 'Gone Away' which featured on the 1972 RCA \"Ronnie McNeir\" LP, without the female singer's vocal response track. 'Say You' is the Motown song first recorded by the Monitors in 1965. It has a more laid-back treatment here, giving it a whole new dimension. We issued the single version on a Kent Select 45 in 2022; both versions are featured on the CD. Another re-envisaged Motown number is 'The Girl's Alright With Me' which features Hodges, James, Smith \u0026amp; Crawford's backing vocals - as do other tracks on this album. Surprisingly, Bob Dylan's 'Blowing In The Wind' is also covered; in a pleasing, jaunty treatment. 'My Day Will Come' is a slow-burning number Ronnie co-wrote with his wife Mona. It is one he is particularly proud of and has been picked up by modern soul DJs as a potential crossover hit. 'Tell Your Mama' is a sensuous, Marvin Gaye-influenced groove, while 'East Side, West Side' is more streetwise, dealing with the social problems that face many young people. As a multi-instrumentalist, heavily influenced by jazz, it comes as no surprise that Ronnie would record two jazz \/ soul instrumental jams which he simply named 'Ronnie's Bag #1' and 'Ronnie's Bag #2'. The tracks are keyboard-lead, piano and possibly organ - or more likely one of the early synthesisers that Ronnie pioneered. 'Ronnie's Bag #1' is more jazz-oriented, while 'Ronnie's Bag #2' goes funky","brand":"BORDER MUSIC LTD","offers":[{"title":"NZ - In Stock (Ships Tomorrow)","offer_id":52608408158508,"sku":"eb-029667027519","price":60.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/5186\/5644\/files\/4454656-3445886.jpg?v=1769892926"},{"product_id":"8718469538959-dance-to-the-music-vinyl","title":"SLY AND THE FAMILY STONE | DANCE TO THE MUSIC (VINYL)","description":"Limited 180gm audiophile vinyl LP pressing.

This is such exuberant music, bursting with joy and invention, it's easy to get sucked into the freewheeling spirit and cavalier virtuosity of the group.

'Dance to the Music' peaked at #8 in The Billboard Hot 100, and reached 9th place in the R\u0026amp;B Singles of 1968.

Mayfield and his band's first set at a Bitter End date in January 1971 comprised the bulk of the music presented here.

Playlisted on BBC Radio 2 and Jazz FM and supported by Craig Charles and Cerys Matthews at 6 Music as well as many stations across Europe and the Americas. The album was produced and co-written by bassist Lati Kronlund and features Alison Limerick, Ebba Åsman and Desmond Foster on vocals.Kronlund and Limerick have been enjoying the recent renewed interest in 'Where Love Lives'. Kronlund wrote and produced it for Limerick in 1990, it was remixed by Frankie Knuckles and David Morales and became a club classic and was featured in this year's John Lewis Christmas TV Ad. Arthur Baker heard the original in a club in 1991 that he contacted Kronlund about working together and they then formed Brooklyn Funk Essentials.Since then, Brooklyn Funk Essentials have built a devoted international following and notched up over 100 million streams. Fusing Soul, Hip Hop, Spoken Word, Jazz, Latin, and, of course, Funk, the band's journey began experimenting with drum machines and loops in Baker's Shakedown Sound Studio in Jersey City-hunting for that perfect beat. The early recordings featured greats such as Maceo Parker, Lenny Pickett, Tower of Power Horns, Michigan \u0026amp; Smiley, and Dizzy Gillespie, leading to the acclaimed debut 'Cool \u0026amp; Steady \u0026amp; Easy' (1994). Fast-forward to April 2024, when Kronlund reunited with Baker in Miami, rediscovering recordings featuring percussion prodigy Bashiri Johnson, which inspired new creative sparks for the next chapter of Brooklyn Funk Essentials.The band's acclaimed catalogue also includes 'In The Buzzbag' (1998), 'Make Them Like It' (2000), 'Watcha Playin' (2008), 'Funk Ain't Ova' (2015), 'Stay Good' (2019) and 'Intuition' (2023).","brand":"RHYTHMETHOD","offers":[{"title":"NZ - In Stock (Ships Tomorrow)","offer_id":53211275395372,"sku":"eb-5023639017022","price":33.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/5186\/5644\/files\/4495195-3532865.jpg?v=1778733983"}],"url":"https:\/\/realgroovy.com\/collections\/soul-r-b.oembed?page=2","provider":"Real Groovy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
