More Neo Soul - Maysa

**Lee Collins** · February 20th, 2004, 11:23 PM

This is a new CD I have to get, I only have this title track. Tasty groove, but the song itself, I think, is awesome, really great hook. Michael White is the drummer. Apart from loads of sessions, I think he's the drummer that was with Maze, and I used to love maze. Maysa used to be with Incognito. Enjoy this track!

Alright Rudy, I LOVE this stuff so you gotta post your top 10 (or 20!) albums in this style.

Ok Derek, here's my top ten, and I've put them in order of current listening preference. If there's just one CD out of this lot that you should get, I would recommend Ledisi, it's an amazing CD. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
And from a drumming standpoint, the best are Alison crockett, Experience (live, erik tribett),and Me'shell N'DegeoCello.

Ledisi -Soul Singer
Alison Crockett- On becoming a woman
Me'shell N'DegeoCello-Plantation Lullabies
Me'shell N'DegeoCello -Peace Beyone Passion
Jill Scott -Experience
Erykah Badu-Mama's Gun
Antoinique - Introducing Antoinique
Jill Scott - Who is Jill Scott?
D'Angelo-Brown Sugar
Erykah Badu-Worldwide Underground

D-Man!!!
'Tis kinda old, but do you have the Charles & Friedman CD called Junkyard? Reminiscent of this type of stuff.

**Pocketime** · February 21st, 2004, 05:25 PM

Kickn' list my brother!!! There are quite a few of these that I have not heard but trust me I will!! "Keep It In The Pocket" PT.

**funkydrummer** · February 21st, 2004, 06:14 PM

Pocketime, check out the Me'shell album "Peace Beyond Passion" on that list. Oliver Gene Lake is on drums, and that cat is SMOKIN'! Incredible groove. One of my absolute favorite players.

Couldn't agree with you more man, Oliver gene lake has impeccable time and amazing groove. I've got another meshell CD called cookie, with him on. Great drumming still, shitty album though compared to those 2.
