BONNIE RAITT – DIG IN DEEP

On February 26, 2016, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Bonnie Raitt will release 'Dig In Deep', her twentieth album, on Redwing Records, her own, independent label. The record follows Bonnie's hugely successful 2012 release 'Slipstream', which was one of the best-selling independent albums of 2012 and earned Bonnie a GRAMMY for Best Americana Album - her tenth career GRAMMY win. "The response to 'Slipstream' was such a refreshing and unexpected boost," says Raitt. "So going into this album, I had renewed energy." Includes: Unintended Consequence Of Love; I Need You Tonight; I Knew; All Alone With Something To Say; What You're Doin' To Me; Shakin' Shakin' Shakes; Undone; If You Need Somebody; Gypsy In Me; The Comin' Round Is Going Through; You've Changed My Mind; and The Ones We Couldn't Be. ~ Amazon

THE THREE DEGREES – STRATEGY: OUR TRIBUTE TO PHILADELPHIA

The Three Degrees need no introduction - simply put, they were the most successful female soul/disco outfit of the 1970s, scoring many hits for Philadelphia International Records including the enduring classics, 'When Will I See You Again,' 'Year Of Decision' and 'Take Good Care Of Yourself'; and later, 'Woman In Love' and 'My Simple Heart,' both UK Top 10 hits. Strategy (Our Tribute To Philadelphia) is The Three Degrees' first new studio album for a quarter century and features the trio's own very personal tribute to timeless anthems such as The O'Jays' 'Love Train,' The Trammps' 'Disco Inferno,' Billy Paul's classic with a standout gender switch to 'Me & Mr. Jones' and the exciting title track, popularized by Archie Bell & The Drells, along with a new recording of the group's own '70s hit, 'T.S.O.P.' The album was recorded in 2015 with a top-flight band and a proper orchestra at Down In Deep Studios in Atlanta, GA. Strategy will be supported by a major UK tour across March and April 2016, alongside a substantial promotional campaign involving press, radio and online coverage. ~ Amazon

SNOWBOY & THE LATIN SECTION - NEW YORK AFTERNOON


New album by Snowboy & The Latin Section celebrating the 30th Year since their first record. A glorious Afro-Cuban jazz extravaganza, which captures the block party feel of 1970s latin jazz and early salsa, this is going to be one of the most in demand jazz albums of 2015. It features vocals from both rising jazz vocal star Jen Kearney and Baltimore house music legend Marc Evans, the latter on New York Afternoon, the debut radio single which is already beginning to pick up support. The album also features saxophonist Pete Wareham from Polar Bear and Acoustic Ladyland. Already guaranteed a glowing review in the March issue of Mojo, and a two date residency at Ronnie Scott’s the week before release. ~ Amazon
