Jcksn Ave. [2022] - Nothing To Lose [Self Released]

The new Jackson 5? Jcksn Ave. are a group of five sisters Madi, Jess, Mo, Kris and Hannah Jackson from Memphis, TN.  Whist it would appear that they have released only three singles they were formed in 2001 by the three elder sisters and became a quintet in 2011.

They call themselves 'studio kids' as both their parents were musicians, their father a composer and mother a singer. They were discovered by P.J. Morton in 2013.

Their debut single "All These Dreams" materialised in 2016 on Morton Records followed by "Wwgd (What Are We Gonna Do?)" in 2019.

The latest single is "Nothing To Lose" released yesterday (16 Sep 2021).

VA [2022] - Funk Diggin' : Funk Music Gems From Vinyl Diggers [Wagram Music] (Full Album)

The third Wagram Music compilation released today is "Funk Diggin' : Funk Music Gems From Vinyl Diggers".

It opens with a 1977 cover of British blue-eyed funk band Stretch's "Why Did You Do It" by South African singer Margaret Singana. She had a debilitating stroke the following year but made a comeback in 1986.

Wizdom's 1980 modern soul tune "I'm So In Love With You" originally on Drive and reissued by Expansion in 2000 on 12" coupled with Leon Debouse's great "Every Fellas Girl". I'd hardly call this funk, funky perhaps, but there you go!

VA [2022] - Disco Diggin' : Disco Music Gems From Vinyl Diggers [Wagram Music] (Full Album)

The second of three compilations released today by Wagram Music. This one is a selection of Disco tracks "Disco Diggin' : Disco Music Gems From Vinyl Diggers".

The tracks worth highlighting are Eastside Connection "You're So Right For Me" which is the 7" edit rather the the full 12" version.

Ste-Vo originally credited as Stevo (which is a group not a solo artist) "Pay The Price" released in 1979 on 7" on Shield and later released as a 12" on parent label T.K.

The only other that isn't  a cheesy disco tune is Instant Funk's 7" version of a track posted only earlier this week by coincidence "I Got My Mind Made Up (You Can Get It Girl)".

Shirley Nanette [2022] - Never Coming Back [Big Crown Records] (Full Album)

Posted back on 14 Aug from Bandcamp when a few tracks were available, Big Crown Records has reissued the full 1972 album "Never Coming Back" Portland, OR, jazz singer Shirley Nanette  on Satara. Apart from the album, the label only made one other release, a single consisting of two sides from the album.

The album credits feature Billy Larkin on organ which isn't too surprising when you also note that Hank Swarn wrote all tracks, as he was also a member of Billy Larkin & The Delegates (of Pymgy fame).

I think the rare soul crowd will lap up "Tropic Of Love"? A couple of other highlights include "Heaven On Earth", "Never Coming Back" and of course the well known track "All Of My Life".
