My comment: Absolutely stunningly beautiful background, but the drawback is that it takes forever to load. Many readers won't have the patience for the loading time. Though once it is loaded, it goes faster. If you like Verve Remixed, soul/dance, jazzy kind of groove, and jazz itself, you might find this blog interesting.

My comment: There may have other things than album and compilation, I just have gone through the site very deeply. But I like it set up and its theme, some acid jazz, chill-out, jazz, and a lot of hip hop, all filled with soul. Just to give you a sense of what to expect, artists you might find here include Jamiroquai, Aretha Franklin, Jay-Z, D-Influence, Dave Koz and so on.

Artists you can expect to find here include Altanla Rhythm Section, Bobby Caldwell, Christopher Cross, James Taylor, John Hall, Kenny Loggins, Rickie Lee Jones and so on.
