Good morning,afternoon or evening friends,disciples,cynics and non-believers.....The Soul Guru does not judge...he loves all of you
One of the great things about being The Soul Guru is that friends trust me with their new music so I get to listen and enjoy much earlier than most folk.....the thrill of getting a new album or track has never diminished and never will........as The O'Jays sang so gloriously.......I LOVE MUSIC

I will begin with the brilliant Lineage whose album I truly love.......multicultural hip-hop with it's roots in Ireland...here is what Alex O'Brien ( founder and key member ) told me :
Lineage is a multicultural hip-hop group made of 3 MC's and 1 DJ :
Alex O'Brien ( Irish )
Miquel Ahumada ( Spain )
Cain ( France )
DJ jus Me ( USA )
Been together 6 years playing and working with a variety of artist including Maverick Sabre....an artist I really like a lot incidentally
Their debut album " From Here And There " is a an amazing body of work...with a traditional Irish feel plus with superb Urban beats
Lineage write produce and mix all their own material in their own studio....I LOVE this album and with Alex's blessing you can hear it here ...

Next up is Bristolian Jacob Anderson aka Raleigh Ritchie but probably most well known as Grey Worm from Game Of Thrones...a character I think is brilliant :-)
Signed to Columbia Records and A&R'd by a friend whose skills I greatly admire and a devoted Hull City fan....Julian Palmer
The first time I heard Jacob was on Typesun's brilliant " The PL " released in December 2013 ..one of the GREAT records, played by Gillies Peterson many times....he called it one of the tracks of the year...quite rightly
Jacob is now known as Raleigh Ritchie for his musical career and his debut album is out later this month I think....I've been listening to it non-stop since I got it and it is a great album....RR is a superb vocalist, his lyrics are SO good " Stronger Than Ever " is my personal favourite but there so many great tracks
Here's the video to " Stronger Than Ever "

This is a fantastic album......HIGHLY recommended to all of you
Last but DEFINITELY not least is a young man called Willow Robinson.....I have to say I have a vested interest as he is the first signing to me and my partner Alan McGee's " Clark & McGee Ltd " label.....Alan discovered him living next door to him ...true
His first single " Stones " is now finished,mixed and mastered...the video will be finished next week and we hope for a release in early May....I can't share it at present but trust me....it's " fucking brilliant " as my son Callum said
That's it for this week...The Soul Guru knows and loves music.....and he loves you too
