Tuesday Groove, July 19, 2011

Bringing back the groove again!!! Music really lifts the spirits and makes people feel good. And Tuesday is right there at the beginning of the week, where some lifting is always in order. So welcome back, Tuesday Groove.

Today, I decided to take it back just a bit.





















This is one of those CDs that should be in your collection if you're a fan of R&B. I mean you have Raphael Saadiq, Dawn Robinson, and Ali Shaheed Muhammad in the same group!  These three artists were members of three of the most influential groups in hip-hop and R&B: Tony! Toni! Tone!, En Vogue, and A Tribe Called Quest, respectively.  By coming together, they brought a great 90s vibe to the early part of the 2000s.  This by far was their biggest hit.



Lucy Pearl --- Dance Tonight

This song just makes me want to dance.  Makes me want to smile.  Makes me feel like tonight, everything will be okay.  And when a song can do that, it is always appreciated.

    You're welcome, Daij. And it sounds like you have a really great collection! Raphael Saadiq is one of those handful of artists that just always seem to make good music. Thanks for the read.
