DJ Jun – Tough Love 2

One of the things that I really enjoy about creating mixes and podcasts is that I get to go through the crates and pick out tunes I don’t usually get to play out much.  Some of my most favorite tracks are those slower soul love jams that just melt you away with every listen, but end up taking a back seat to something more uptempo for the party.  The next mix is a compilation of just that…15 bangin’ soul love songs from the vinyl vault, which make up the second installment in the ‘Tough Love‘ series.

A big Shout to Boule at Consortium Distributions and Brian C for being dude.  If you’re in the Montreal area, CD quality versions of ‘Tough Love 2′ are being given away with purchases at the Consortium Pop-Up Shop on St. Laurent until the month’s end.  Grab’em before they’re gone.

Enjoy the mix!

Tracklist:

Hodges, James, Smith & Crawford – Nobody (Mpingo)
Ruby Andrews – You Made a Believer (Out of Me) (Zodiac)
Alice Clark – You Don’t Care (Mainstream)
Smith – Baby It’s You (Dunhill / ABC)
The Lovelites – This Love Is Real (UNI)
The Olympians – How Can I Love (Now That You’re Gone) (Truth & Soul)
Kings Go Forth – High On Your Love (Mr. C’s)
Eddie Kendricks – Intimate Friends (Tamla)
The Voices of East Harlem – Giving Love (Just Sunshine Records)
The Persuaders – Thin Line Between Love and Hate (ATCO)
Kool Blues – Can We Try Love Again (Capsoul)
Marie “Queenie” Lyons – I Don’t Want Nobody To Have It But You (DeLuxe)
Halleluiah Chorus – I’ve Got to Find a Way (Nickel)
Wendy Rene – After Laughter (Stax)
Isley Brothers  – Don’t Say Goodnight (T Neck)
