A lengthy Billy Valentine Interview can be had on the Guardian Website Clip and link below “I just want to make a difference,” Valentine adds. “I had to get this stuff out of my gut, and say what needs to be said in a way that could change someone’s mind, someone’s attitude, or just make them stop and think.” Having rediscovered his voice singing the protests of others, he’s begun working on songs of his own once again tapping into the protest song tradition that made his name four decades ago. Billy Valentine’s time, it seems, has come again. “My work’s not done,” he nods. “I still have more songs I want to sing, social commentary things, if it’s meant to be. I’m a vocalist, and just like a runner has to run, a singer has to sing.” Billy Valentine and the Universal Truth is out now via Acid Jazz https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/mar/27/im-a-messenger-thats-my-calling-80s-hitmaker-billy-valentine-on-his-socially-conscious-comeback

Acid Jazz Presents: Billy Valentine and The Universal Truth A new album released today 24th March 2023, available via Vinyl Lp, Cd and Digital. Release notes 'Since last September when we announced our collaboration with Billy Valentine, Bob Thiele Jr and the Flying Dutchman label, with Billy’s peerless cover of Curtis Mayfield’s ‘We The People Who Are Darker Than Blue’, we have been looking forward to the moment when we could share more music with you. Earlier this month we shared Billy’s take on Gil Scott-Heron’s ‘Home Is Where The Hatred Is’ and it followed its predecessor onto Jazz FM’s A list. Today we can share with you the news that the album ‘Billy Valentine & The Universal Truth’ is out on March 24th. It’s one you don’t want to miss. The album sees Billy and a stellar cast of musicians including Larry Golding, Jeff Parker, Pino Paladino, James Gadson, Linda May Oh, Alex Acuña, Amber Navram from Moonchild and Blue Note recording artist Joel Ross and Immanuel Wilkins re-cast a series of important songs from the African American songbook in a unique and inimitable style, profoundly influenced by the events that were going on around them throughout 2020 to 2022 when the album was recorded at the historic EastWest Studios in LA. The works of Mayfield and Scott-Heron are joined by those of Pharaoh Sanders, Prince, Stevie Wonder, War and Eddie Kendricks. It is a sonically stunning and emotionally moving record.' Tracks 1 We the People Who Are Darker Than Blue 2 Home Is Where the Hatred Is 3 My People... Hold On 4 You Haven't Done Nothin' 5 The Creator Has a Master Plan 6 Sign of the Times 7 Wade in the Water 8 The World Is a Ghetto Preview Billy Valentine and The Universal Truth by Billy Valentine & The Universal Truth ‘Many of the initial releases on Flying Dutchman were by important Black voices, both musical and political…. Cut to the summer months of 2020. America, in the throes of a global pandemic, was experiencing one more come-to-Jesus moment in our violent history: the murder of George Floyd. On the heels of a powerful new movement revolving around the hash-tag #BlackLivesMatter, it seemed the right time to resurrect Flying Dutchman and seed it with this collection of eight recordings by Billy Valentine and The Universal Truth.’ – Bob Thiele Jr. (Producer, Flying Dutchman) ’Since the moment we heard the first two track Ed and I were determined that we would release this album. It’s soul music performed at the very highest level, and we are convinced that it is one of the best records we have ever released.’ – Dean Rudland (Acid Jazz) The vinyl comes in a beautiful gatefold sleeve that mimics the classic design of Flying Dutchman album releases, right down to the design of the spine and the producer’s box. With an atmospheric cover shot taken by LA based photographer and skate boarder Atiba Jefferson, and inner sleeve shots revealing the workings of the sessions. The soft-pack CD mirrors this look. -

Sly Stone has announced that his memoirs titled 'Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)' will be published later this year via White Rabbit. "For as long as I can remember folks have been asking me to tell my story," says Stone. "I wasn't ready. I had to be in a new frame of mind to become Sylvester Stewart again to tell the true story of Sly Stone. It's been a wild ride and hopefully my fans enjoy it too." One of the few indisputable geniuses of pop music, Sly Stone is a trailblazer who created a new kind of music, mixing Black and white, male and female, funk and rock; penned some of the most iconic anthems of the 1960s and 70s, from "Everyday People" to "Family Affair"; and electrified audiences with a persona and stage presence that set a lasting standard for pop culture performance. Yet he has also been a cautionary tale, known as much for how he dropped out of sight as for what put him in the spotlight in the first place. As much as people know the music, the man remains a mystery. In Thank You, his much-anticipated memoir, he's finally ready to share his story - a story that many thought he'd never have the chance to tell. Written with Ben Greenman, who has written memoirs with George Clinton and Brian Wilson among others, Thank You will include a foreword by Questlove. The book was created in collaboration with Sly Stone's manager Arlene Hirschkowitz. Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin) by Sly Stone 28 Sept 2023 Kindle Edition £9.99 Hardcover £25.00 This title will be released on September 28, 2023. Publisher : White Rabbit (28 Sept. 2023) Language : English Hardcover : 320 pages -
thanks for informing us Martin My sincere condolences go to all his family and friends

Thee Sacred Souls "Running Away" Out digitally today. 45 featuring "Love Comes Easy" is out April 7th. A highlight of their countless sold out shows (on both sides of the Atlantic), and previously unreleased, “Running Away” finds the group turning up the heat with an up-beat burner that exemplifies just how versatile this band really is. On the flip is “Love Comes Easy”, a mid-tempo fan-favorite that's making its debut on the 45rpm, 7" format.

Upcoming vinyl lp release from Kent Records, the release notes from Ady Croasdell aka @Ady Croasdell follow below SHRINE NORTHERN - THE 60s RAREST DANCE LABEL Ace Records Ltd is proud to announce the purchase of the Shrine label and Eddie Singleton’s independent productions. To celebrate we have compiled an album of the very best dance recordings the label made in 1965 and 1966, primarily in Washington DC. The business’s failure made this music incredibly hard to find for record collectors and Shrine is rightly known as the rarest soul label. It is much more than that though. The music was made by some one of the original founders of Motown, Raynoma Liles Gordy and her Motown-schooled cousin Mike Ossman, New York music business luminaries Eddie Singleton and Harry Bass and the up-and-coming talents of Washington’s Keni St Lewis and Maxx Kidd. The acts included the hugely respected Ray Pollard and fellow New Yorker J.D. Bryant, talented and established Washington and Baltimore acts Eddie Daye & The Four Bars, Bobby Reed and the Enjoyables. Importantly, they discovered and developed the local talent of the area in the shape of the Cautions, Les Chansonettes, the Prophets and Shirley Edwards. It took decades for UK Northern Soul fans to realise the significance of the label. It finally clicked for Stafford’s Top Of The World all-nighter DJs who searched out the incredibly hard to find later releases and played them to the cult-following of the rare soul scene. The scarcity was caused by Shrine pressing up a batch of fourteen future singles but only getting a handful released before they folded. The vast majority of the later releases were destroyed in a warehouse fire or simply binned as stillborn commercial failures. Such was the scarcity that when the first Shrine compilations were issued in 1990, the Prophets tracks from Eddie Singleton’s master tapes were assumed to be unreleased - until Shrine sleuth Andy Rix later obtained one from a group member. The music captures the exuberance of soul music in its peak years. The rhythms are pounding, the vocals soaring and the songs positive and cleverly composed. Undeniably Motown-influenced, they never copy others’ songs but feature the group harmonies of New York City on the Counts, Enjoyables and Prophets singles, while the Ray Pollard and J.D. Bryant tracks have that city’s big ballad soul sound. Les Chansonettes and the D C Blossoms are shimmering femme group sounds at their most tantalising. The label produced soul in many shades but here we’ve concentrated on its in-house dance specialties. Don’t worry about the price-tags; just listen to that quality.

A release information pass on Pama International - Hypocrite Out digitally now Out on vinyl 1st July 2023 'The next single from Pama International is a southern soul take on an early 1970s reggae classic - The Heptones - Hypocrite. I’ve loved this song, ever since I recorded a version with one of my old bands - Special Beat. Along with Ranking Roger (The Beat), John Bradbury, Horace Panter and Neville Staple (all of The Specials) we laid down a reggae version back in 1991 at UB40’s studio. It was an absolute delight to revisit the song and give it a southern soul work over. I’m truly proud of the results and very much hope you enjoy it to!' -
