21st Century Soul - 2000 (The Best Of)

Artwork by Roger Williams
Midweek, especially Tue-Thu, is usually particularly quiet for new releases so we were discussing this with a few contacts and a suggestion was to feature some oldies and we came up with the idea of featuring Y2K soul which we will call 21st Century Soul and work through each year of the century.

Starting this week with 2000, and incrementing the year each week, with the selections of their favourites for each year from radio show hosts Kevin Oxberry, Paul Goldsmith, Roger Williams and Steve Aggasild and a few of our own if they haven't already been chosen.

You may know many of them and, hopefully, there will be some that you don't or have forgotten about.

Several of the selections aren't available on Spotify (highlighted in red below) but the ones that are have been included in the playlist below. They're in no particular order of merit, simply alphabetical by artist against each DJ who selected them. Inevitably there was some overlap but not as many as you might expect.

Anyone wishing to submit selections for 2001 onwards is invited to send them to soulstrutter@gmail.com
