Johnny Corsair Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Hello all, Brand new here and apologies immediately for beginning with a shameless plug for my podcast! I'm three shows in. All available with the link below. I will never run out of old soul but I try and keep an ear out for new - although my ear is lifted more by new soul that sounds like old e.g. Thee Sacred Souls, whose single is featured elsewhere on this website. From next month I will be giving away as a prize an Ace records CD - starting with 'Everybody Makes A Mistake' the second volume in the Stax series compiled by Dean Rudland. I play a track from the first volume: 'Nobody Wins' this month. I must add the podcast is only some soul/r'n'b there's old blues, doo wop and gospel each month too - so it might be everyone's cup of tea? Thanks, Johnny https://johnnycorsair9.podomatic.com/ 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
