Love and Affection - Ladies Night

Bittersweet romance. Love and loss. Amazing joy. It's all here on Ladies Night. This one starts with a lot of soul and then keeps the soul feel through a set of classic women singer songwriters. The mix continues through the decades and concludes with some wonderful covers.

The picture here is the late Etta James singing the blues. You can listen to this mix from the Mixcloud link below.
