DJ Grizz- Marvin Gaye, The Duets

The 1st artist mix of the year so fitting we have something from the daddy of Soul music- Marvin Gaye. Todays mix however focuses on all those incredible duets made mainly in the 60’s with the like of Tammi Terrell, Kim Weston and Mary Wells but creeping into the 70’s too with Diana Ross.
Great tracks like It Takes Two, The Onion Song, You’re all I Need To Get By, Teach Me Tonight (a jazz standard given the Soul treatment ) and many more marvellous Marvin twosomes.
Have a Soulful week Mixtapers

Kicking off with an Intro from German Maestro's Jazzanova and a few of their remixes/productions (Such a great catalogue of remixes and legitimate LP's from them so do check them out if they are new to you), then were into 80's/90's UK Street Soul territory with the likes of Soul II Soul, The Chimes and Kruez and others, after which Steve Arrington gives us his thoughts on "Funk" and the different types followed by some great examples including my fave Maceo and Sly Stone tunes.

Im sure the fellas will have more mixes uploaded this weekend, enjoy, and I'll be back soon.
