To our estimation, at current Discogs values, there is approx. £9k
          worth of tunes on this second eclectic Miche compilation, "With Love:
          Volume 2", from Mr Bongo Records.  
      
      
        There's some really obscure Latin music from South America and a few known modern soul tunes amongst the 15 tracks and as a bonus
          we received a 16th track which is only available on the CD release.
      
        The follow up volume to "With Love Volume 1" is more focused on the dancefloor. One of
          Miche's highlights is an anthemic gospel version of Stevie Wonder's
          'As' by The Family Tree (a project produced by Julius Brockington
          which, according to Discogs (which isn't always 100% reliable) lists Sharon "I Specialize In Love" Brown as a member. 
      
      
        For the modern soulies, Cecil Lyde, Freedom and The Eleventh
          Commandment are well worth the 'admission charge' alone as that's over
          two grand's worth of original wax right here!
      
      
        The compilation is set for release on 6 Oct. It will be available
          digitally, on CD, Cassette and on limited edition 2 x Pink Vinyl LP or
          2 x Black Vinyl LP.
