Famed as one of the tight-knit group of musicians the Funk Brothers, who played on the vast majority of Motown's 60s records, Jack Ashford was the percussionist and vibes player who augmented that infectious beat so successfully. After his time at Motown he co-founded Pied Piper Productions with Shelley Haims and when that folded in 1967 started his own Just Productions. The infectious beat continued to propel many of their releases but the main songwriters - Jack, Lorraine Chandler and George Rountree - added great new melodies and well-crafted songs and then a big injection of Motor City funk. They unearthed talented singers like Eddie Parker, Sandra Richardson and the Smith Brothers and even employed Jack's own voice. Parker's 'I'm Gone' and 'Love You Baby' are considered the epitome of ampheta-soul by UK devotees, who have adored the records since the early 70s. The Smith Brothers' output is all high class and their full take of 'Things Won't Be The Same' (which shares the backing track of Sandra Richardson's 'After You Give Your All') is available for the first time. Similarly the new version of Jack Ashford's recording 'I'll Fly To Your Open Arms', by the Family Brick, debuts here; it is a masterful slice of sophisticated, uptempo Detroit soul. Then a new singer in the city, Billy Sha-Rae's 'The Story Of My Life' sees it's first vinyl outing and the mysterious Ray Gant & Arabian Knights' reading of 'Don't Leave Me Baby' is considered the ultimate rendition of this superb song. Al Gardner knew Jack at Sport/Boss Records and his 'Sweet Baby' has been a big collector's item for decades. Also, from the late 60s comes a terrific uptempo version of 'I Need Your Love (To Satisfy My Soul)', originally only known as an acetate by the Stylists; it was later cut at a slower pace by Lee Rogers on Premium Stuff. The LP is rounded off by Jack's own take on 'Let Me Take Care Of Your Heart', a remarkably fine recording that the Smith Brothers would later cover on a Shield 45.

A beautiful mind
Malcom had the capacity to express his ideas in such an eloquent and smart way. This book is proof of that.
I'm studying this great human being and now I consider this an essential book for anyone, any race, any place or gender that are looking to open their minds. Definitely a must read for any person.

... or sacred poem as my focus of concentration) I enjoy reading this book at bedtime for inspiration
Format: Paperback
Since I began practicing Passage Meditation (meditating on a prayer or sacred poem as my focus of concentration) I enjoy reading this book at bedtime for inspiration. I find that when certain prayers or poems resonate with me, stanzas from them will come to me during the day. Some of them I memorize quicker than others. I appreciate this book for having so many from so many traditions compiled and translated so beautifully. At the back of the book you can look them up by category, such as prayers for courage, or fear, etc. I am surprised at how many I have memorized, and how much they affect my thoughts throughout the day.

Make your life a work of art
Format: Kindle
These passages drawn from all the world's great spiritual traditions coupled with enthusiastic sustained practice of Eknath Easwaran s 8point program can provide depth and meaning to one's life and a greater understanding of what the check it is we are all doing here on this beautiful yet long suffering planet. Don't be thrown off by the quiet delivery or the religious stuff -- it's always common sense experience based and never heavy handed. You'll get as much out of it as you put into it. The people that have used this form of meditation and are associated w the blue mountain center are some of the most extraordinary humble people you will ever meet. Good luck.
