* For the third week this month we look at the Album of the Month for March 2008, which is "Live in Atlanta Volume 1" from Frank McComb. And you'll hear what are actually the last two full length tracks of the album, including the extremely full length "Do You Remember Love?" coming in at over 13 minutes long!

* And it's this week that we say a fond farewell to the Brazilian Bit, simply because there is no more Brazilian soul or funk left on the CD that I've been rinsing for the last several months. And the final track is from Jairzinho Oliviera and "Voce Por Perto"

* In this week's Grooveline Garage, another track from the outfit called Qualifide, this time round with "See The Light"

* A possible first in the House of Grooveline this week, as we offer up some delightful French soulful house from Hanna Hais, and the exotic sounding "Doucement"

* The Grooveline Threeplay this week features three tracks back-to-back from a band which I like to dub "Funkadelic for the 21st Century". It can only be Bugz In The Attic

* Plus lots more music and music news
