RNZ Reviews: July 2020

Once a month or so I have a chat on RNZ on their Afternoons show with Jesse Mulligan. These things start – randomly and stop in much the same way. I hope to keep doing this. For a while at least. I think I started in December of 2015, so now four years into  it or so…

For July I was in early. First week. Second day.

I talked about “comeback” albums from soul veterans. Firstly You Make Me Feel by Don Bryant and I played the song Is It Over.

Then I talked about the first new studio album in eight years from the great Maceo Parker. And we played his version of Yes We Can Can.

I’ve also written about the latest Don Bryant and the new Maceo Parker. So you can click those links to read full reviews.
