GVM Classic: Top 15 Songs – The Blue-Eyed Soul Edition (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There’s soul that comes from struggle. There’s soul that’s born from tradition. And then… there’s Blue-Eyed Soul — a bridge. A cross-cultural heartbeat. In this powerful edition of Good Vinyl Mornings , your host, Prentiss “PL Sweets” Thompson, curates a sonic journey through the Top 15 Blue-Eyed Soul tracks — songs performed by artists who may not have looked like the soul pioneers, but carried the same emotional fire and reverence for the music’s roots. This episode isn’t just a playlist — it’
GVM Classic: Top 5 James Jamerson Bass Lines | Inspired by the genius behind the Motown Sound (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Good morning, groove lovers! Today on Good Vinyl Mornings , we don’t just celebrate bass—we celebrate the man who redefined it: James Jamerson . If you've ever felt your spirit move while listening to a Motown classic, chances are, Jamerson was the one behind that heartbeat. Before bass playing was cool, he made it art —playing with one finger (lovingly nicknamed “The Hook” ), Jamerson laid down lines that danced, wept, and shouted without ever saying a word. He didn't just support the groove— h
GVM Classic: If You’re Rejected, Accept It | 🎵 Inspired by: “Get on the Good Foot” – James Brown (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This morning on Good Vinyl Mornings , we confront one of the most misunderstood gifts in life: rejection . When something—or someone—turns you away, it can feel personal. Final. Defeating.

Brown used music as a weapon, as therapy, and as motivation. T
GVM Classic: How to Create Your Own Peace 🎵 Inspired by: “Higher Love” – Steve Winwood (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In today’s episode of Good Vinyl Mornings , we lean into the pursuit of something we all crave but rarely prioritize: inner peace . Not the kind that waits for external validation or perfect conditions—but the kind you create and protect from within. Our soundtrack for this reflection is Steve Winwood’s anthemic “Higher Love,” a Grammy-winning classic from 1986. With its soaring melody and uplifting message—amplified by the incomparable Chaka Khan on backing vocals—this song reminds us that peac
GVM Classic: Pass the Mic: Lift Someone Up Today | HipHop Hooray (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today’s groove is about power— shared , not hoarded. On this episode of Good Vinyl Mornings , your host Prentiss “PL Sweets” Thompson unpacks the message behind “Hip Hop Hooray” by Naughty by Nature , a certified anthem of celebration, inclusion, and community. But we don’t stop there—we rewind the record back to its soulful roots in “Make Me Say It Again Girl” by The Isley Brothers . The Isley Brothers gave us tenderness, intimacy, and vulnerability—a classic slow jam that speaks to the deep bo
