I've been listening to the new Michael Head and the Red Elastic Band album - Dear Scott.

It's excellent - I'd highly recommend it.

Mr Motown Lamont Dozier hitmaker dies aged 81

Motown hitmaker Lamont Dozier, who penned songs for The Supremes, The Four Tops and The Isley Brothers, as well as Marvin Gaye and Martha and the Vandellas, has died aged 81.

The news was confirmed by his son Lamont Dozier Jr on Instagram.
As part of the Holland, Dozier, Holland songwriting team, he had many number one records and also won Grammy awards.
Their hits include Baby Love, Nowhere to Run, How Sweet It Is (to Be Loved by You) and You Can't Hurry Love.
"Rest in Heavenly Peace, Dad!" wrote his son online, alongside a picture of the two of them together.

Dozier, along with Brian Holland, served as the musical arranger and producer, while their friend and colleague Eddie Holland focused on the lyrics and vocal production.
They shaped the famous Detroit label's influential sound, with tracks such as This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You), Reach Out I'll Be There and Heat Wave.

A lot of black artists had to come to UK before Motown and a lot did afterwards as we loved them here.
 
I haven’t contributed to this thread for a while, but the new albums from Jackson+Sellers and Dave Hause, both released last week, are absolutely superb.

The former are duo made up of alt-country singer-songwriters Jade Jackson and Aubrey Sellers. This is an indie-rock/garage-rock influenced country album.

Dave Hause is a former punk musician who now does Springsteen-influenced folk-rock/Americana stuff.

Seeing Dave Hause in London next month for the first time!
