Hollie Smith is one of my favorite living soul artists. Fell in love with her sound in 2007, when I first wrote about her. http://blog.musicload.com/2007/09/hollie-smith-soul-girl-for-real.html
This song below, 'Lives For Living', is the first single off Hollie Smith's new album Band Of Brothers Vol.1 with Mara TK known for his work with Electric Wire Hustle. This record is her latest effort under her new EMI New Zealand deal. The song is subdued, but beautiful. It sounds great turned up so that the subtleties of the rhythm can come through. Enjoy!

PICKWICK - GREAT NEW SEATTLE BAND
Posted by Gregory J. Chamberlain
The Seattle Washington based band known as Pickwick is one of my favorite new bands. Just picked up on them last week for the first time. Totally reminds me of 80's group Squeeze meets Simply Red, only more groovin' with a classic sound they can call their own.
The following videos were produced by Seattle based music market makers, Abbey Simmons and Josh Lovseth of the music blog Sound on the Sound. And the videos were filmed and edited by Tyler Kalberg with the sound and mix by Chris Proff. Kudos to this fine crew. Enjoy!

Corey Taylor of Slipknot contemplates the future of Slipknot
During an interview for his new book Seven Deadly Sins, Corey Taylor said that the shows overseas with Slipknot were positive experiences. But was it enough to get him psyched about working with Clown, Joey and the rest of the masked men for a new album?

Moody and Diz - Remembering James Moody and Dizzy Gillespie
Posted by Gregory J. Chamberlain
Thanks to Jazz Video Guy on YouTube for this great bit of jazz music history.
Charlie Fishman, who now produces the DC Jazz Festival, was Dizzy Gillespie's friend and manager during the last years of the trumpeter's remarkable life. Here, he recalls the close friendship of Dizzy and saxman James Moody. Enjoy!

Amy Winehouse - Love Is A Losing Game
Posted by Gregory J. Chamberlain
I remember, vividly, the first time I ever heard this demo recording by Amy Winehouse. It totally fucking killed me, right after her first line and it stirred by emotions even more are it crept on. To this day, the song still hits me with the same impact as it ever did, perhaps a little more.
