Stuart Maconie sits in
Our 1975 Gold Album is Chocolate Milk’s ‘Actions Speak Louder Than Words’, the New Orleans band’s debut.
Stuart Maconie is in for Craig with another journey through funk and soul. Our 1975 Gold Album is Chocolate Milk’s ‘Actions Speak Louder Than Words’, the New Orleans band’s debut, where slick funk grooves meet sharp political edge, and the title track went on to become a breakbeat classic. In Love Label’s Lost we explore Contempo Records, John Abbey’s UK label that championed American soul and homegrown talent in the mid-70s, leaving behind a catalogue that deserves rediscovery.
