Great tune, she has a rich soulful voice. This reminds me I need to listen to more of Ann Peebles discog. She's an artist I'm not overly familiar with. Besides of course I Can't Stand the Rain.

I've been listening to these guys a bunch recently.

I don't think we've ever posted anything from this duo on here, I could be mistaken. This is a classic tune

 

[K Douglas]

Oh man this is a beauty. Heard this on Soul Town yesterday. I know others have covered it

 

[K Douglas]

I have to say that William Bell is one of my favorite voices of the 60's era. For all you Stax fans

Boy I must be getting old. Truth be told I turn 50 next week. Yikes

Nice I don't recall hearing that one. Love the sound.

This one's a knock. The original was produced by Jam and Lewis but the official video is the remixed version done by All Star. Jadakiss with the guest rap.
Deborah looking mighty fine here. Pride of the 6ix

 

[K Douglas]

This instrumental is infectious. Bad Boy Records in house producer Ryan Leslie with the credits.

 

[K Douglas]

One of my favorite Maxwell songs. That horn just sucks me in. From his 2001 album Now.

 

[K Douglas]

One of Babyface's few r&b club jams. The Neptunes laced this. And the women in this video are stunning

 

[K Douglas]

Great r&b with a touch of jazz. Maze was
