* Unfortunately, as the CD is still missing there will be no Brazilian Bit this week

* Additionally, due to issues with the supplier, there will be no Grooveline Garage either. We'll just make it up to you with more great music!

* In the second hour this week, a brand new soulful house track on Stalwart Records from Steven Stone, called "Music Sounds So Good With You", with a very infectuous vocal hook

* The Grooveline Threeplay looks at the recently released Papa Records album from Domu featuring Pete Simpson, with three tracks back to back from that

* Plus lots more music, information and a review on the Incognito gig at the Jazz Cafe, completely with details on the forthcoming album "Tales From The Beach"
