Jalen N’Gonda – Come Around And Love Me  Are you a fan of retro soul?  A fan of the sounds of Dap-Tone Records, of Sharon Jones, Charles Bradley, Amy Winehouse and Coming Home era Leon Bridges? Do you miss the smooth sultry crooning we used to get from Smokey, Marvin, David Ruffin and Al Green?  If you answered yes to any of these you need to drop what you’re doing and smash the album link and give this one a listen.  Jalen grew up in DC absorbing his parent’s old Motown recordings like a sponge and then moved to Liverpool where he honed his vocal skills at the Institute For Performing Arts.  This album is pure unadulterated sex waiting to happen.  It’s slow dirty dancing in a dark smokey bar room at 2 AM.  Forget Barry White when you need to create THAT mood, cue up Come Around And Love Me instead.
