Sample of the Day #4: Billy Stewart - We'll Always Be Together

The last post reminded me of one of my all time favorite albums "The Pretty Toney Album" by Ghostface, which then takes me to Billy Stewart.

While his scat singing does not appear in this song but only shortly at the end, it was in fact his key characteristic which also brought him a Top 10 hit in 1966. I guess he was just slightly more focused on his first love here:



Producer Nottz used this sample perfectly in my opinion. Pretty straight forward drums underneath Stewart's voice, which are occasionally interrupted by the great horn arrangement, so Ghostface can get some air. And I think we do not need to discuss Ghostface's performance here, he just does what he does best i.e. to deliver, including a Billy Stewart style "Brrrrrrrrrrr"...

Soulchef - Only For Ent. (feat. Awon)

SoulChef just released a nice, soulful, R'n'B-influenced album called "Here & Now". Here is a small taste...

Billy Palmier - You Got

Perhaps old news for some people, but hopefully something new for more people. I have found this little gem on Billy Palmier's soundcloud. He definitely has his own original sound, which I can honestly only describe with one word: "boogie"!
Back in 2007 he released his first and only album so far "Urban Palmtree Flavours". It was also the first release of his own independent label "Citywurl". Ever since I got hold of those tracks a couple years back, it has been sitting on my mp3 player's drive and I wonder when or rather if I will ever get bored of it. Probably not, so getting it on vinyl wouldn't be the worst idea, Mr. Palmier...
