And the winner is:   Paul from Vinyl Afterlife (check it out).

Mel told me that reggae and dancehall superstar Sugar Minott passed away today.   (1956-2010)   RIP Sugar.   Here’s “Buy Off the Bar” (1984)   Sonic Sounds and Power House Records.   (Cover art by reggae illustrator Wilfred Limonious.)

And here’s Sugar Minott’s cool, cool cover of Michael Jackson’s “Good Thing Going” from 1981.

Ray Charles “Love Country Style”   ABC/Tangerine Records (1970)   I heard someone say that they fall in love at least once a day.   I do too.   Today this song says it all to the one I love.     Isaac Hayes does it his way on the “Black Moses” LP, but this one from Ray’s country and western catalog, (which he returned to throughout his long career),   is today’s source of sweet inspiration.
