DJ Grizz- Soul Niceness 159
One third of the year gone already but at least the good weather is just around the corner! One thing that won’t change here is the quality of the Soul music offered and yet again here's another cool mix out off the bag ... its Soul Niceness 159!
Maurice and the EWF boys kick us off, theres a great early 70’s cut from Bobby Womack, we’ve a Brazilian classic from Tania Marie, Dennis Edwards from the Tempts gives us his big hit and we end on the best version (in my opinion) of the massively covered Creedance Clearwater Southern Rock anthem... plus more good good stuff!
Have a Soul filled week guys!
Grizz- The Soul Mixtape
Earth Wind and Fire- Cant let go
Bobby Womack- Looking for a love
Chico Hamilton- Magic fingers
Tania Maria- Come with me
Lui- Oh oh i think im falling in love

DJ Grizz- Rose Royce
Today we have a Los Angeles group who were massive in the mid to late 70's. With a string of dancefloor and ballad hits they were one of those bands who had major 'pop' success and still kept their Soul/Funk credibility. Ladies and Gents …. Rose Royce!
We begin with a serious piece of Disco/Funk in Is It Love You're After, there's the tune that spawned many a UK retro club night Car Wash from the big 70's film, there's the sublime and a little underrated - Still In Love, better known as a hit for Mary J we've the original I'm Going Down and end on one of the greatest Soul ballads ever in Wishing On A Star... plus more!
Have a Soulful Easter Mixtapers!
