The Friends of Distinction - Best of - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Diana Ross - Red Hot Rhythm & Blues [COMPACT DISCS] date 03/08/2019

With the pandemic still keeping most of our world in lockdown, it seems that a ray of light would be welcome, especially for young children. I'm proud to say that my tag, Melody Place, is releasing a new album of my original songs for the young ones. InchIT'S GREAT TO BE A KIDInch features songs I wrote during the pandemic with the idea that I would just make the record for my grandchildren ages 3 and 1. My partner, Leigh Shockey, heard the music and implored me to it on Melody Place, so that children all over the world might have a chance to hear the music I wrote for my grandkids. The songs are all about the fun new parts of life that a child gets to experience. I recorded with some of my brilliant musicians in Nashville, as well as some of my favorite singers and voice actors. I also sang a few myself when the casting was right.

Memphis Rhythm and Blues hit makers The Bar-Kays are back with their Best Of. James Alexander (bass) and Barry Dobson (vocals) both agree this album showcases the band's thunderous funk sound. The album features hits past and present including InchSoul Finger,Inch InchToo Hot to Stop,Inch InchThe Slide,Inch InchShake Your Rump to the Funk,Inch InchSpend the Night,Inch InchLet's Get It OnInch and InchEverybody Wants That Love.Inch
