Lois Levin [2023] - Revisioned EP [Baltic Jazz Recordings] (Full EP)

We were introduced to Lois Levin in Feb ('23) with a reimagined jazz rendition of The Clash's "Should I Stay Or Should I Go" as the first releases on the new Liverpool based Baltic Jazz Recordings label. Subsequent releases by the label have been a cover of Culture Club's "Changing Every Day" by Ni Maxine and an album "Revisioned" on which Steve Levine reimagined eight songs predominantly from the 70s & 80s.

The label's latest offering is a five track EP also titled "Revisioned" (could get confusing)  which primarily features Lois Levin and includes songs that she has written.

Leven wrote "Burden" when she was 15 whilst trying to understand her father's alcoholism growing up. She released it as her debut single in Jul '21. The EP includes two 'revisioned' versions, the full length and a radio edit which is still a minute longer than the 2021 original (live video performance below)  and is a much more soulful rendition.

She also wrote two of the other three songs, "LaLa (I Don't Wanna Talk About It)" and "Pheromones", with the final song being a cover of the Christine McVie written "Why", a Fleetwood Mac album track from their 1977 eponymous album (which has already been playlisted by Jazz FM's Robbie Vincent).

All tracks have been skilfully produced by Steve Levine.

Lois Levin [2023] - Should I Stay Or Should I Go [Baltic Jazz Recordings]

A debut single for new Liverpool label Baltic Jazz Recordings which features Lois Levin on a song titled "Should I Stay Or Should I Go" which we posted from promo video last week and was officially released yesterday (27 Feb 2023). 

The label aims to showcase jazz and neo soul artists based in the north west of England.

Believe it or not, the song is a cover of The Clash song written by Joe Strummer and Mick Jones and produced by Brit and Grammy award winning UK producer Steve Levine (Culture Club). It's barely recognisable to The Clash original.

Levin is a new talent emerging from the streets of Liverpool’s Birkenhead inspired by artists such as such as Marvin Gaye, Billie Holiday and Alabama Shakes.

Her first single, "Burden" (Jul '21) received national radio playlisting on Jazz FM, as well as BBC 6Music and she has recently performed shows on BBC Liverpool including a BBC Introducing Live at the world famous Cavern club. The new single will be her third following "You Don't Make Me Feel Good Anymore" from last Jun ('22).
