Prompted by Other Blogs, Part 4

I'm always cruising around the interweb, looking for interesting music. I'll see or hear something out there that sets me on a path. 

 

Every few days I check out Things & Time Will Tell blog. 

 



A few days ago I noticed a post titled "Sade at the Movies (for Beginners)". Being a career-long Sade fan, I was drawn in.

MM starts off:
     "Sade fans aren't impatient...their last studio release was 2010...I've never heard news, leaks, or promises of a new record coming despite the twelve year gap."

Well, there's this. Stuart Matthewman, multi-instumentalist, songwriter, & original member of Sade's band, told Rated R&B that the singer is back in the studio.
     "We're working on a new album with a bunch of songs fans will love."

MM went on:
     "There's been the occasional 'best of' compilation or vinyl reissue, but we haven't even seen 'deluxe edition' cash-ins packed with demo tracks & no compilations collecting the 12" edits, official remixes, or non-album B sides that are out there."

That set me on this path...

Presenting: a mix of B-sides & non-album tracks; a set of 'super deluxe' remixes; & a compilation of Sade in the House.

Let's start of with one taken from MMs post, "Killer Blow".

  1. Kind of unexpected but very welcome. Last I heard was Love deluxe, quite a good album.
    I'll happily go through this b-sides.
    Good to leave those Gorgoroth records at rest for a while.
    Cheers and thanks.

    1. I didn't fill your gaps. It wasn't me. You can't prove it. I was busy doin' other stuff. Honest.

  3. i'm not the most rabid Sade fan (although i recognize their brilliance and legend status). BUT i am very intrigued by the No ID remix, as I'm currently exploring No ID's production history. sooooooooooo thanks!

    1. It's a good tune and No ID is definitely worth spending some time on! (Of course I'm a Chicagoan and in the right age bracket to be a little biased on that one...)

  4. Hey! Thanks for the shout out and the piles of Sade tunes! Glad you've enjoyed. I think I may have told you this once, but running into your blog years ago really help rekindle my excitement for certain corners of my music collection, especially On-U artists I hadn't listened to in a while... which helped lead back to full blown obsession! Thanks for what you do. Glad I was able to "prompt" you!

  5. The feelings are mutual. I'm often finding things on your blog that remind me to listen to artists or tunes I'd long forgotten. That often sets me onto "full blown obsession!" Thank you for the generous praise..

  6. Quite unlikely but the Deftones did a great version of No Ordinary Love! @amyblueband

  7. @amyblueband, thanks for the comment. Long time Sacremento resident. Saw Deftones mant times. Guess this is on B-Sides & Rarities, never heard it before. Actually a surprisingly good cover. Chino sounds really in tune with the whole vibe ( & additional vocal chores by Jonah Matranga are +++). Hope other check out this version.
