NTS been playing some awesome Balearic type stuff this morning on their UK shows. I can struggle a bit with NTS, but it's been good today.

Timmy Thomas passed away this week. The voice behind a much loved (covered by Sade) slice of balearic soul with all the apt lyrics..

Good question. My money would be on sly & family stone or billy preston, but you could be right

Yeah, Sly used a Maestro Rhythm King around that time.
Another option: George McCrae-Rock your baby.

Made a right fool of myself yesterday with this. Thought I’d do a little tribute to his passing during our little internet radio show. But for some reason I played Be Thankful by One Blood which is a cover of William Devaughn’s original. As soon as I played it my co host gave me a look and immediately the Penny dropped. The only thing I could say was ignore what I just said. Talk about cocking it right up!didn't realise just how many covers there have been! everything from dub reggae to sweet soul to er Rampling

still a great tune though
Happens to us all. I've confused The Orb and Orbital in the past and DJ Pierre and DJ Pierre. Took me years to realise there were 2 Sashas as well!

A great interview with everyone in question about the early scene in Belfast plus quite a bit on The Guvnor and his influence on us here:

The Hell Yeah / Night Institute party last week was incredible. And ALFOS before that too. Next up along those lines, the Weatherall tribute night; Gods Waiting Room presents Music’s Not for Everyone - A celebration of his life and music. Postponed since March 2020, sold out and his family are coming over for it too.

Mega! We've also got a much-delayed tribute night coming up this end in a couple of weeks, put on by his Spanish fanclub. Can't wait!
