Joanna Law [2021] - Rhythm of Years [Tangential Music] (Full Album)


A new album from Joanna Law released 8 Mar 2021. She is the sister of Simon Law ('The Funky Ginger') who was a member of Soul II Soul who has been releasing music since 1988 and had a minor chart hit in 1990 with a cover of Roberta Flacks' First Time Ever' which reached #67 on UK pop chart.

It's a difficult album to categorise as it contains ambient, jazz, jazz funk, carribean and breakbeats similar to what Soul II Soul were doing back in the day. 

I believe that many (if not most) of the tracks were originally recorded (or have been re-recorded) in her earlier days e.g. 'First Time Ever' (1990) and 'Song For Theo' (2001), 'Celebrate Love' (1992), 'Love Is Not Enough' (1990), 'You're Mine' (1992),  'Warm Love' (1992), 'Skin On Skin' (1994).

The album has 21 tracks, but many are remixes (i.e 3 mixes each of 'Love Is Not Enough', 'Warm Love', 'First Time Ever' and 2 of 'Song for Theo'), So essentially there are only 14 tracks with 7 remixes, but album price is still only £7.49.

'Immediate' tracks are 'Skin On Skin', 'First Time Ever', 'Song For Theo', but I've gone for the 'obvious' track to feature, 'First Time Ever (Extended Mix)'.
