Charles Blakely - "You're the Right Kind of Woman"

Lewis Dee played this song tonight on The Lewis Dee Show and it was just what I needed to hear.  It is pure southern soul.  It isn't new - it was released in 2011 - but I love it!

Sonny Green - "I Beg Your Pardon"

What a cool new CD.  I was recently turned on to Sonny Green and really like his r&b/southern soul sound.  There's a hint of old school to him and I like that because it keeps this style of music alive. "I Beg Your Pardon" reminds me of days gone by.

Sonny Green has been singing forever.  In reading his bio, it says that he's recorded singles before but this is his first full-length album. "I Beg Your Pardon" is from his Found, One Soul Singer CD and the songs I've heard have all been good.  You can go to youtube and check out his music.

Read more info on Sonny Green on the Little Village website (http://littlevillagefoundation.com/sonny-green/).

Arthur Young - "Slide Wit It"

Arthur Young is doing it!  He has a way of singing kind of wild stuff that makes you want to sing along with him. lol You know some of his other songs such as "Funky Forty" and "Stroking" and "Slide Wit It" will make you move.  The girl was dancing and moving and knew how to party on the dance floor!

Tyrone Davis and also Tyrone Davis with Willie Clayton - "Can I Stop By"

It is Friday night and I am LOVING this song!  Here are two versions of "Can I Stop By" by Tyrone Davis.  The first one is Tyrone by himself and the second one is with Willie Clayton.  Both are excellent - I kind of like the one with Willie Clayton a little bit better. 😍
