6: The History of UK Soul (w/ Special Guest OMAR)

Its a Best of British special on R&V this month! We continue our journey through the roots of contemporary Soul Music, with expert guidance from this month's very special guest - bonafide UK soul icon OMAR! With all the inside knowledge from the man himself we discuss the rise of Acid Jazz - a new, uniquely British wave of soul in the late 80s/early 90s - and its influence on the decades that followed. We talk influences, the under-represented landscape of the 80s UK scene, working with Neo Soul legends like Common and Erykah Badu, and even a hilarious brush with greatness involving Prince!

Featuring music from Brand New Heavies, Incognito, Lynden David Hall and Soul'd Out's own Jordan Alfonso.
