    A fan of Jamiroquai but haven't heard a lot of Moses Mayes though if that track is anything to go by , I'll have to get into some of their music . Great stuff .

    I like a fair bit of that funk/acid jazz from the 90's including 'Brand New Heavies' , 'Incognito' , 'Down to the Bone' , 'Urban Knights' , 'Marcus Miller' , 'Wayman Tisdale' , 'Brian Culbertson' and the 'Greyboy Allstars' .

    Yeah that song inspired me to get his album. Haven't listened to it yet but hope it's up to the standard of that song.

    I'll have to check out those others on YouTube. Thanks.

    Here's a track from 'Euge Groove' ( Steven Eugene Grove ) . This song takes a little while to get going but when it does , Steven gets to show his real talent . Some earthy sax here . Nice lead guitar break towards the end to round it out nicely .

    From George Benson's latest album 'Guitar Man' , this song is entitled 'The Lady in my Life' .

    This track builds nicely to an excellent finish . George at his best . Nice slideshow as well .

    I really like this kinda jazz - house/trance style ? I'm no expert so it is a guess . I like both tracks you posted JJ but this one especially .

    Here's another couple in that style - though a fair bit different .

    I'd never heard of Nu-Jazz until you mentioned it. Another good one. How many other Jazz styles are there?

    Some more Nu-Jazz from Quantic.

    I've been struggling to find some good Nu-Jazz. I've finally tracked down a good compilation that seems to be packed full of gold.

    This one in particular caught my attention.

    Terry Callier is a jazz musician and singer from Chicago . This song is sampled from Deodato's 'Summer of Spirit' . Quite a haunting and impressive effort with terrific vocals .

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
