The Dirty Dozen - The Best Of 2021... Covers, Reissues, Remixes & Samples Part 28 (Oct 2021 Wk 39)



My selection of this week's best cover versions, remixes, reissues, previously unreleased and new songs using samples or new releases with a retro feel (Sep 2021 Wk 39). (In no particular order apart from tempo).

The reissues this week include the first digital issue of Mike De'cole's "Nights Like This" (only previously available on 7" vinyl) and a pre-EP reissue of Cherise's "Remedy".  Izipho Soul reissued two tracks from Derek Damian's 2013 EP "The Inception" on a vinyl 7". Lina Nikol released her debut album which includes a 2018 single she recorded with Frank McComb. Izipho Soul have reissued Derek Damian's "Whatcha Wanna Do" on 7" vinyl for the the second time as the first issue sold out within 48 hours of release in 2019.

The New Mastersounds merge the three previous vocals for "A Brighter Day" into what they call a mashup, so either a remix or a reissue.

Kem has remixed "Not Before You" from last years "Love Always Wins" album which is included as a bonus track on the deluxe edition of the album released last week. Another remix of a 2019 track by Nichelle Colvin which features Gerald Albright on sax.

Three covers from Butcher Brown & Alex Isley with Patrice Rushen's "Remind Me", DJ Jazzy D does Andre Lee's "Stepping With You" and The MILF do a pretty good job on Creative Source/EWF "Can't Hide Love"

To complete the dozen I've added the new single from Alax Puddu "Call Me" as it has a retro feel.
