Hey everybody, I’M BACK!!!

Well… it has been a “minute” since we’ve served up a new dish here at Rhythms In Black Satin, actually about 8 weeks to tell the truth of the matter. Sorry for the unexpected and extended hiatus, but things IRL did not permit me the time to devote my little spot here. hopefully the worse is behind me now and we can get back to our regular weekly get togethers from here on out.

Even with the time challenges I’ve been dealing with one of the things I wanted to make sure I did was post some new Christmas mixes or “Sounds of the Season” as I like to call ‘em around here in celebration of the Christmas holiday. I’ve been doing this for the past two Christmases and I did not want to miss doing it again this year. BTW, you can check out the mixes from 2007 and 2008 by clicking on the ARCHIVES PAGE link in the Navigation bar at the top of the page or, even easier click the Xmas Category link here.

OK! I have three Xmas 2009 mixes that I’ve cooked up for the Return of RIBS today. Our first one is called A Soulful Christmas 2009.

This mix is a continuation of the first “A Soulful Christmas” mix that we published back in 2007. As I described it back then it’s “a real pleasing mix of some traditional and original Christmas tunes from some of our favorite Soul artists”. The 2009 version includes soulful sounds from folks like The Four Tops, Rahsaan Patterson, The Whispers, Luther Vandross, Keith Sweat and Joe just to name a few.

It’s been a long time a comin’ but I am so very happy to be setting the buffet table once again with a fresh batch of RIBS for you to enjoy. It’s Christmas time that most wonderful time of the year! Time to enjoy some sounds of the season, RIBS style as we present to you…
