Fat Jon

"Heart, Soul & a Voice" is the 2nd English-language album by Cuban American singer Jon Secada, released in 1994 on the SBK Records label. It contains the singles "Take Me", "If You Go", and "Mental Picture". All of the tracks except "Don't Be Silly" also appear as Spanish language versions on the corresponding Spanish album Si Te Vas.

Unlike the previous volumes in Jon Savage's series of double CD compilations, which featured music from an expansive mixture of genres, this latest edition is 100% rock, as Jon elaborates in the customary bumper 28-page booklet: In the late 60s, British pop and youth culture began to fragment into tribes. The divisions had always been there, even at the height of the supposedly classless mid-60s. I was an unrepentant rock fan. That was my tribe. I still bought Motown and reggae hits, but they were the hits: there was no deeper exploration. After Radio Caroline had gone, I d lost most of the connection to black American music as part of the wider pop experience that I d had in 1965, 1966 and 1967, even 1968.

Another singer, another wowser! Tuesday it was Allegra Levy, today it's Marty Elkins. Two girls successfully mining the GASbook, both able to convey the emotions expressed by the lyricists without over-emoting. Unlike Levy, Elkins doesn't stray into more contemporary waters but stays well within the 'golden era' that stretched from the 1920s to the mid-1950s. This isn't a criticism of either. Both do what they do do, well. lkins got hooked on jazz when at college in Boston. She discovered a copy of Billie's Lady in Satin in a Woolworth's bargain bin. The gal was hooked!
