"The Paul Simon Songbook" is the first solo studio album by Paul Simon. It was recorded in London and released in the UK in 1965 and was supposedly deleted in 1969 at Simon's request. The album was produced by Reginald Warburton and Stanley West as CBS Records LP 62579, and later remastered for Columbia/Legacy CD 90281.

Mama Said is the 1991 second album by Lenny Kravitz. The follow-up to his Let Love Rule album, this featured the hits "Always On The Run", "It Ain't Over Til It's Over", and "Stand By My Woman". The album also features help from guitarist Slash, saxophonist Karl Denson, and pianist Sean Ono Lennon, which was a continuation of Kravitz's John Lennon fetishism at the time.

Given Adam Naas’ voice and the stripped down visuals on this second album, you might have expected a load of stripped-back and post-soul gems, or perhaps even a disco revival. The Frenchman’s first EP appeared in the autumn of 2016, just months after Prince’s death difficult to believe that was mere coincidence. Two years later, his début album landed somewhere between glam, pop and soul, serving only to confirm this princely lineage. Today, however, Adam Naas shows that if there’s one thing he’s learned from the Kid of Minneapolis, it’s his taste for freedom and artistic independence. He’s defined in equal measure by his characteristic fluidity between genres and influences.
