Here’s an underrated Blue-eyed Soul/Jazz artist recreating the old-school soulful feeling. This particular track is influenced by the magic of the late great Marvin Gaye. Taken from his 2004 CD album “Deeper” released on Compendia Records. Many thanks once again to my friend SoulLakis from Volos who introduced me to this mellow nugget.
