Here I Am Again…Plus captures Southern soul powerhouse Denise LaSalle at the peak of her mid-1970s output for Westbound Records. Originally recorded in 1974 and released in 1975, this expanded 1993 CD reissue blends hard-hitting funk, bluesy uptempo grooves, and lush disco-soul arrangements. Backed by the iconic Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and the Memphis Horns with charts by Gene "Bowlegs" Miller, LaSalle showcases both her commanding vocal range and her sharp songwriting prowess. From the salacious shuffle of I Wanna Do What's On Your Mind to the deeply emotional roots-ballad Don't Nobody Live Here and the signature title track, the album remains a cornerstone of 1970s Memphis-style soul.

On Muscle Shoals Nitty Gritty, the legendary jazz flute visionary Herbie Mann delivers a gritty, deeply soulful, and historically brilliant masterclass that stands as a towering monument of jazz-funk fusion. Recorded in 1970 at the iconic Muscle Shoals Sound Studios in Alabama, this remarkable document captures Mann stepping cleanly away from traditional post-bop layouts to submerge his sound entirely in the raw, swampy, rhythm-and-blues architecture of the deep South. Spanning 37 minutes of immaculate high-fidelity audio design, the 6-track landscape operates with a fluid, rootsy, and heavy-grooving kinetic energy. Backed by the legendary Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, the tracklist moves seamlessly through towering groove milestones, highlighted by the blistering title track and a jaw-dropping, 10-minute reimagining of The Beatles' Come Together. On this monumental centerpoint, future Weather Report bassist Miroslav Vitouš locks in alongside Muscle Shoals' own bass extraordinaire David Hood, creating an elite, legendary dual-bass pocket that stands as one of the few Beatles covers to fully do justice to Paul McCartney's melodic bass vision. Driven by punchy brass arrangements, deep Southern backbeats, and Mann’s expressive, highly vocal flute delivery, this pristine archive remains an indispensable treasure for serious soul-jazz purists and funk collectors worldwide.
