Hello All,

I am SO IN LOVE with my iPod! I'm a downloading fool. I went crazy last week downloading a few Errol Garner and Ahmad Jamal CDs that I did not have in my collection. This week my jewel of a download was a smooth neo-soul group, Hil St. Soul. I first heard about this group yesterday when I was with my best friend Arch and we were listening to a contemporary jazz radio station. Hil St. Soul's remake of Until You Come Back To Me (Acoustic version) came on the radio. I immediately flipped, so much so that I hit iTunes to see if I can find out who recorded this version and download it. I discovered that its cheaper downloading a CD than it is buying the CD in a store or through my usual on-line sources. After hearing samples from the group's three available CDs, I can say that I am in love. From my understanding Hil St. Soul's music is called neo-soul. I call it da BOMB! Check 'em out sometime.

Now about, Miss Leela James...why ain't this woman being played on the radio?? What a f*cking incredible voice!! Her music brings back my parents southern roots with a smooth beat to it. She sounds all country, churchy and bluesy at the same time. This is the kind of music that I AM TALKING ABOUT!! I know her CD is old, but the music is off the hook, regardless.

Hello,

I'm glad you all like Leela. She's a bad sista.
