Song IDs
I've got some old tapes & minidiscs from years ago with lots of songs & samples of the radio.
Since recording them, I've managed to find most of the ones I liked, but there's still a handful I've never been able to identify, so I'm looking for your help & expertise to help me!
A mix of styles from latin, funk to some kind of trance type stuff...
Please post a comment if you think you recognise any!
I've included a track number & brief description.

My Band
I Started jamming with Maria back in Feb 07, her on drums & me on bass. We decided to get a band together. Aiming to play Soul, Jazz-Funk, Blues style music, based on a good groove.
So we went through a few months of auditions, looking for keys, guitar & vocals. After a pretty large amount of people we picked up new members gradually, giving us Tomasso on Keys, Michael on Geetar and Tam on vocals.
Once we had all the right people on board, we started picking a setlist and through trial & error came up with over 20 tunes we're happy with. Stuff from Sly & The Family Stone, The Meters, The Breakestra, Jamiroquai & more. Adding lots of our own uniqueness & improvisations.
We're starting out with cover, not your run of the mill ones mind you. And once we have them down we'll start writing our own material as we gel more & more. We're available for all sorts of gigs from now, music bars, clubs, pubs, corporate, parties, weddings, 21st, bar mitzvahs...
We've been doing some serious practice over the last few months and we're ready to hit the road! So we've 5 gigs ready for the months of Oct & Nov so far & ready for more.

Hope to see you at them!
