hi james --
yes, nuyorican soul is quite an amazing feat. it is a project developed by
masters at work and is out on talking loud in europe and on giant step here
in the states and features the amazing likes of george benson, roy ayers,
tito puente, eddie palmieri, la india, jocelyn brown and the salsoul
orchestra. the singles out now are "you can do it baby" and "runaway" --
which was the last song they played on jeannie's show last saturday with la
india on vocals. both singles have been on the billboard dance charts in
recent weeks and i think "runaway" was up into the top ten last time i
checked. the album will be out on march 11. if you are here in new york,
you should be able to pick it up at dance trax, vinylmania, eightball, etc.
for more information, check out the last issue of straight no chaser and
the new on the one issue (look in the steps ahead section) which will be
out in stores/newstands before the end of the month.

Hello
I finally got around to purchasing Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite a couple of
days ago. Despite feeling that the album is somewhat patchy, by and large I
rather wish that I hadn't been quite so remiss in buying it, but still...
My first question is who are/what is MUSZE? There are comments on the liner
such as "Maxwell exists courtesy of MUSZE.", "... written by MUSZE", etc.
and I'm not quite sure how to interpret them.
Secondly, does anyone know whether Maxwell plans to play in New York in the
near future (or have I missed that one already)?
I made it to the Jamiroquai concert here last week. The moment our cab
arrived outside the Roxy, people were opening the doors, climbing in and
trying to buy tickets off us. It was quite an intense scene. The show was
awesome although one couldn't help noticing the large number of obnoxious
teenagers there. I suppose this is part of the price of popularity...
One final note, I tuned into the Liquid Soul Lounge on WBAI last Saturday.
Between all the requests for funding they played some great stuff -
inspired me to wipe the dust off Lonnie Liston Smith's Water Colours and
give that a spin for some reason.
WBAI played a couple of things from the new Nuyorican Soul album. Does
anyone have any information/opinions on this?
Thanks in advance for any info.
James
