The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.
Simone performed "Mississippi Goddam" on The Steve Allen Show on September 10, 1964. First Amendment scholar Ronald Collins felt that Steve Allen, the "famed host of a nationally syndicated TV variety program ... was one of the few who then dared to provide a forum for those with dissident views." Therefore, when Nina Simone "joined Allen at the desk before [the] song, he told her he wanted her to sing 'Mississippi Goddam' because he knew it would provoke a lively discussion about censorship."
Roy Panton and Yvonne Harrison made history as one of the first Jamaican ska duos. Decades after going their separate ways, the pair rekindle their magic—this time, 3,000 kilometres north, in Scarborough, Ontario.

The Style Council - "Shout To The Top" (12" Extended Mix) A Myleslandia Video Mix by Myles Matisse!
The Style Council is: Paul Weller - Vocals, Guitar Mick Talbot - Piano, Keyboards Dee C. Lee - Vocals Steve White - Drums
Lyrics: I was half in mind, I was half in need And as the rain came down I dropped to my knees and I prayed I said, "Oh heavenly thing, please cleanse my soul I've seen all on offer and I'm not impressed at all"
I was halfway home, I was half insane And every shop window I looked in just looked the same I said, "Now send me a sign to save my life 'Cause at this moment in time there is nothing certain in These days of mine"
You see it's a frightening thing when it dawns upon you That I know as much as the day I was born And though I wasn't asked, I might as well stay And promise myself each and every day
That when you're knocked on your back and your life's a flop And when you're down on the bottom there's nothing else But to shout to the top Well we're gonna shout to the top We're gonna shout to the top We're gonna shout to the top Hey, we're gonna shout to the top
You see it's a frightening thing when it dawns upon you That I know as much as the day I was born And though I wasn't asked, I might as well stay And promise myself each and every day

Soulful and bursting at the seams with energy, the Style Council’s infectious call-to-arms hit single (UK #7) was a non-album track in 1984, later included in Our Favourite Shop expanded edition, it has a clear Curtis Mayfield influence, an addictive driving string section, and is a clinic in effortless-cool music.

Shot entirely in one take, Nobody Knows (Ladas Road) employs infrared to mirror the themes present in the track, in particular, feelings of alienation. Visually speaking, this meant subverting how audiences typically might see the musician. “Infrared interested us as it sort of tonally turns everything on its head,” Uncanny recalls. “We liked the idea of illuminating Loyle with this invisible force that’s not concerned with conforming to our expectations of what ‘lightness’ or ‘darkness’ is. It renders skin, landscapes and especially foliage in this surreal indescribable way making the world look almost alien.”

I love the way it flows, I love the way it grows There’s something in this sound that takes me far It’s like a special song, can move my mood along But I cannot say your here through my guitar
She told me add the bassline, and everything will be alright She told me that the groove is mine, it will take us through the night And where I’ll go, can’t explain I’ll never know But it’s beautiful
CHORUS:
You can’t take this away from me, the way I hear the melody The waves bring clarity, running through me You can’t take this away from me, the way I hear the melody The waves bring clarity, running through me
I love the way it sings, all the joy that it brings Remember skating down the road towards the park I can never say no, you with that summer glow The music gives me sun when winter starts
She told me add the bassline, and everything will be alright She told me that the beat is mine, it will rock us through the night And where I’ll go, can’t explain I’ll never know But it’s beautiful
CHORUS X 2
DE LA SOUL:
Yo, I wear notes like coats, blues like do’s Warmth and the rhythm, soul that glues The bounce in my bones, the jazz in my spine The hop is my home, rap is my grind
I’m grinding on the back side of life, we dance She threw me a chance, her hands in my pants Actually my pockets, holding me tight Whispering a dream I could hold in the night
Blood tight, a rhythm that’s throbbing my vein Wake up and write it on the pad, the pains Like church the organ will invite my tears Like birth, the crying let you know I’m here
Held by the song that gave me a name Dressed by the verse that gave me a claim It’s just bass in the line, safe to inhale And if you live well…
Belong for years in this day you will be A time is octave to play for the tree Is rooted in every single nerve in me The nerve of he, with noise the key
In music that opens the mind to be free Whenever you’re hot headed ?? you a breeze Beneath the clouds you allowed to see in clarity through harmony Someone harming me – that won’t be done I stand protected by the laws of fun And am perfected through the rhymes of run Walk it this way and leave the party stunned This music, it launched me With no aim, I’ve landed On some plain Where I am I can’t explain, I never know but it’s beautiful so
CHORUS

TomMisch the internet born producer phenom releases new single "It Runs Through Me" featuring De La Soul ahead of the release of Tom Misch's much anticipated and upcoming debut album.
Carner employs a "languid" style of rapping.[8] His sound has been described as "confessional hip-hop", "introspective", "jazz-infused", as well as "sensitive and eloquent".[7][15][14] He cites American hip hop and grime music as musical influences.[30][31] He also regards American poet Langston Hughes and British writer Benjamin Zephaniah as inspirations
"Ain't Nobody" is a song by American funk band Rufus and American singer Chaka Khan. It was released on November 4, 1983 by Warner Bros. as one of four studio tracks included on their live album, Stompin' at the Savoy (1983).
His unforgettable Rockpalast performance on November 4, 1976, catapulted Canadian multi-instrumentalist Pat Travers into Europe's spotlight. With Peter "Mars" Cowling on bass and a young Nicko McBrain on drums (later of Iron Maiden), his raw, dynamic energy captivated audiences. Despite shifting trends in the 1980s, Travers maintained his legendary status as an electrifying live act. Now available on DVD+2CD, this Rockpalast concert is a timeless document of rock history.

Lyrics
The rain falls hard on a humdrum town This town has dragged you down Oh, the rain falls hard on a humdrum town This town has dragged you down Oh, no, and everybody's got to live their life And God knows I've got to live mine God knows I've got to live mine William, William it was really nothing William, William it was really nothing It was your life... How can you stay with a fat girl who'll say: "Oh! Would you like to marry me? "And if you like you can buy the ring" She doesn't care about anything Would you like to marry me? And if you like you can buy the ring I don't dream about anyone - except myself! Oh, William, William it was really nothing William, William
Jackie Shane was a familiar name in the 1960s soul hub in Toronto, only to mysteriously disappear from music altogether in 1971. It wasn't until 2017 when the Numero Group producer Douglas McGowan convinced her to return and release a compilation box set album of her greatest hits, which earned her a Grammy and a resurgence in her fanbase. Today we will explore what made the underground soul singer so revolutionary.

The Style Council - It Didn't Matter promo from 1987
Mark Dobis's insight:
"It Didn't Matter" is a song by the English band The Style Council which was their fifteenth single to be released. The song was duetted by Weller and his then-wife Dee C. Lee.
"Right" is a song by the English musician David Bowie from his album Young Americans, released on 7 March 1975. The repetition of the main lyrics, the prominence of the percussion and bass, and the emphasis on the backing singers made "Right" one of the album's "authentically soulful" songs, according to professor of music Ian Chapman.
Vincent Fenton (born 26 March 1990), known professionally as French Kiwi Juice or the abbreviation FKJ (sometimes stylized Fkj), is a French multi-instrumentalist, singer, and musician from the city of Tours.
David Pimentel, who also goes by “Pomo,” is listed as one of the many contributors to WE ARE, an an album that the Port Moody native helped to produce.
""The beat for crazy dream I actually made about two years ago. I had it sitting around for ages and never planned to develop it until my mate said he thought it was a banger! I revisited it and sung a hook on it, then invited Loyle to do a verse"

The track "Stars In Your Eyes" was issued as an extended 12" single.
