More vinyl love
I've a lot of Jhelisa records Dorado used make a good effort on the design side of things too
A great album and a cover very much of it's time some nice tunes on this!
One of the best albums of 2010 and another visually striking piece she rocks!
Like many great artists in music history, Ike Turner was a complex character who did a lot of wrong as we all know. It's a shame that this has diluted the legacy of his music amongst many; because their were not many more important people in rock n'roll. Jurassic 5 plundered this amazing album.
What an artist-one of the very best!
The pic says it all
Definition of the word "FLY"!
De la Soul ain't dead!
No copies left in One Stop Records in 94 so my man Curty Cut gave me his own personal one-soundtrack to a great summer in the States
Rest in Peace Curty Cut, who died at only 32 in 2002
One of the most iconic soul covers; my favourite singer of all time

Vinyl Love 21-30
Another 10 from my collection!
Great artwork on KIng Britt's Philly throwback debut including this
Sly Stone tricky jumping like this with skinny jeans!
The late Malcolm McClaren brings the vinyl love
The hair was of it's time, but they have always been originators behind the mic!
Dooley O was on Black on Red a few years ago when David Long brought him to Cork-he signed this re-issue of a great track with Steezo
another icon this time one of our own more people should check this album too
More old skool
A bonafide jazz classic on Blue Note records oh yeah!
From the same era this was a lovely 12" from Heights of Abraham, an off-shoot of Fila Brazilia used spin their records a lot
More vinyl love this was a nice concept album from a Philly crew who had some great tunes in the early 90's

Vinyl Love parts 1-10
I've decided to start posting up pictures of my favourite records. I used have about 20,000 vinyl albums and 12"s and still have well over half of that so as you can imagine there is some great art and some iconic covers.
Here are the first ten!
Let's start off with the legendary B-boy and graf artist who passed this week, this was a pioneering tune
Ramelezzee RIP
Since it's Jam's 8th Birthday tomorrow here is a classic from way back in the Sir Henrys days unreal cover and banging tune
"Now for my next record, i'd like to return to the classics"
"Dance this mess around" and other nice tunes from a great new wave band
One of the best Stevie Wonder album covers and an under-rated album
another great cover, another great band and one of the greatest songs of all time-great price too!
1993, Fish Records, Liberty St! (got it signed years later)
Gig is cancelled in Cork, but at least the music is still here EPIC music on Motown
Love this; Mahalia Jackson
Finally for now, a bit of modern day soul and a signed copy of a great album

- I'm a DJ from Cork in Ireland. I work with RedFM, presenting Red Drive, The Hitlist and my specialist show, Black on Red. I'm probably best known for being one of the main hip-hop/soul DJ's in Cork and Ireland. I've been DJing in Cork since the early 90's in legendary clubnights such as Sweat in Sir Henrys, Mor Disco, Free La Funk, Yo Latino and also Jam and Jam Junior at the Savoy and the Pavilion. I've also held down long term residencies at clubs around Ireland such as Brown Sugar at the Kitchen in Dublin, U-Turn at Ri Ra in Dublin, Jazz Juice at the GPO in Galway, Thompson Garage in Belfast, the Soul Clinic, Dee-Bop, Meltdown and Mo Bounce in Limerick and i've played abroad in the United States and the U.K. on numerous occasions. I also write a music column for the Evening Echo and i'm a regular contributor to the U.K.'s Blues and Soul, the longest running black music magazine in the world. These days i run the Pavilion, a music venue in Cork, which hosts my Jam night every few Fridays http://www.pavilioncork.com also you can catch me at http://djstevieg.podomatic.com
