Let's Fall in Love all over Again - Billy Paul It always amazes me how a small part of a song can be used to make a brand new, big song. For those of you who know Gang Starr's "Moment of Truth", this is "Let's Fall In Love Again" by Billy Paul from his 1970 album "Ebony Woman". And to those who grew up when that song was new out, I hope it brings back great memories of your days. Won't you share with us what were those memories?

Who Am I - Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz Here is another one that I personally like. As some of you can tell, the beats that I like are rather soulful, a bit funky, and there's something a bit old school about them. I hope this song pleases you too. This is from their 1998 album "Make it reign". Anybody wanna take a shot at the riddles included in this tune? Tags: rap hip-hop lord tariq peter gunz make it reign who am |

Every Time I See You - Woody Shaw Months ago, a user on YouTube told me that Roy Ayers "Every Time I See You" was also written by Woody Shaw. I finally am able to bring to you, my fellow viewers. While I enjoy both renditions of the song, the question is who recorded it first? Both albums containing the song were released within a month of each other, so it's clearly no coincidence here. This is from Shaw's 1977 album "Rosewood". Which rendition of "Every Time I See You" do you prefer? Tags: woody shaw rosewood every time see you Jazz |

Where You Are - Whitney Houston You know, there was a time before Whitney got hooked on... well, whatever's she taking Babby, where she was nowhere close to being a mess.
