The Dirty Dozen - The Best Of 2022... Part 39 (Oct 2022 Wk 39) Spotify Playlist

SoulStrutter selections of the best releases this week 

(Oct 2022 Wk 39)

In no particular order other than tempo. 

Plenty on neo soul releases around last week with the Neo Soul Dirty Dozen extended to two dozen but not so many more traditional soul tunes. A few liberties have been taken as technically The Isley Brothers track included is a cover of Switch (1978), both Beth tracks borrow from Aretha ("Call Me") and S.O.S. Band ("Tell Me If You Still Care") respectively and  DMo!'s "DTFTSW" also dips into the S.O.S. Band song and has been out a couple of weeks on Bandcamp. Carmy Love probably should be in the Covers etc. Dozen as it has a retro feel. Juantia Wynn has been around a few weeks from promo and released on Bandcamp but got an official release on the main DSP's on Friday.

In fact, it could be argued that Gloria Scott is retro and Dennis Taylor is a remix but if all the above were left out there would be very little left to put in the playlist such is the sparsity of good quality original material!

This week's SoulStrutter Selection of the Week goes to JELISA for her debut five track EP "Season Of Vulnerability".

The Neo Dirty Dozen - The Best Of 2022... Part 29 Oct 2022 Wk 39 Spotify Playlist

The SoulStrutter selection of the best Neo Soul releases

for: Oct 2022 Wk 39 in no particular order.

There were a lot more neo soul tunes around than traditional last week so this week it's a double-dozen. The highlight is a debut six track EP by Dutch artist JELISA who featured here in June with "Perspective" along with videos for her other two singles. A few other picks from the pack include Tash, Soulutions feat. Gemma Ashley, Bella Luna, Upper Reality and Tara Lily. 

Upper Reality (aka Jessica Bathea) released a five track EP "Chaotic Neutral" yesterday with only three new tracks but none of them are better than "I'm Cool", although "Stay " is quite pleasant and uses lines from Diana Ross' Reach Out And Touch"
