King Floyd - "What Our Love Needs"

How many of you played the flip side of King Floyd's "Groove Me" to hear "What Our Love Needs??"  I love it, love it, love it!!  I adore these lyrics.  Songs like this make you believe in romance and love!

When I was young, we played both sides of all of our 45s.  Our albums, too!  We would also put a stack of 45s on the turntable and when they were done, we'd flip the entire stack over.  Ah yes, the good old days!!

Listen girl, you say you want me, you know I want you
So here's all we got to do
Just give our love more affection
And baby we'll have that protection
From loneliness
And then tenderness, we'll possess

Lebrado - "Dance"

Have you seen Lebrado's latest music video?  It's a great dance song and I love music that makes me want to get up and move! Lebrado has always produced fantastic music and it's good to hear something new from him.

"Dance" is taken from Lebrado's 2018 "Let's Party" CD, not to be confused with his 2015 CD with the same title.

Dance, dance, dance, we can dance all night.

We can dance anywhere you want to...

Geno Wesley - "She's Got the Juice"

I like this, it really grows on you and is an easy song to sing.  She's got the juice - go on and turn her loose!

Here's Geno Wesley's bio as taken from www.numberonemusic.com:
There's a message in the music!!! The artist known as Geno was born Wendell Geneiro Wesley on November 22, 1974 in the city of Mobile, Al. to Mr.and Mrs.Barry Wendell Wesley. He was born into a family of talented gospel singers, songwriters, and musicians. At the tender age of four Geno performed his first solo on a Christmas program in church, but due to his shy demeanor he shoned singing. Growing up Geno was an honor roll student, and as the years passed he began to develop a passion for the performing arts, and while taking drama classes. He also began to become interested in performing poetry and acting in stage plays. Throughout middle school he won various awards and prizes for his talents. And even started a career in school politics where he won elections for student council Chaplain and Vice Presidency. At the age of 13 he was blessed with the opportunity to assist the legendary gospel great,"The Reverend James Cleveland" while the reverend was attending the (1988 Gospel Music Workshop of America in Mobile, Al). At the age of 15 Geno regained his confidence in singing and began performing in high school talent shows.

Adrian Bagher - "Willing & Able"

Young southern soul keeping the music alive with a great message!

Adrian says that his mother gave him some great advice and told him that if he has a girl that ain't willing, then be a man that's able to fold his own clothes and put a meal on the table.  She said not to be nobody's fool because she didn't raise him like that, stand tall, he can't go wrong like that.  Amen!!  If he has to cook and clean himself and the girl is no help, then he shouldn't be dealing! So true, so true!!!  Mothers, teach your sons and your daughters!!

Good looks only take you so far!

Ms. Jody says she's got a man! This guy sounds like the man you want in your life, the kind you want to hold on to forever. She said that every woman should have a man like hers. I know that's right! He makes her life complete and brings out all the woman in a woman like her. He's not a deadbeat father, makes her laugh, and treats her real good.  Ladies, if you've got a man like Ms. Jody's, you better hold on to him as tightly as you can!!

Willie Clayton - "Ain't No Way"

Willie Clayton took Aretha Franklin's classic "Ain't No Way" and performed it beautifully!!  I don't care for a lot of remixes but this was tastefully done.  He didn't try to sing it exactly like Aretha, he put his spin on it and sang it his way.
