Summary: It's not Saturday unless you're in the SOUL on Saturday baby! That's right, accept NO substitutes...BEST of the best 'oldskool soulskool' R&B/Soul/Funk music from the 60's, 70's and 80's. This Week I have as my special guest on the Soul, musician and producer Billy Osborne, brother of Jeffrey Osborne and original member of the soul funk band LTD. LTD was one of the premier R&B bands back in the day. They brought us the tunes like Love Ballad, Back In Love Again, Concentrate on You, Jam, Stranger, Where Did We Go Wrong, and April Love just to name a few. Billy Osborne along with his brother J.O. were in part responsible for that LTD music we all came to enjoy. When Jeffrey went on to pursue a solo career Billy continued to work and would produce a lot of the hits for some of the bands that were actually LTD's 'competition ' back then as well as a host of other familiar names in soul music, r& b, and pop. He wrote several of the songs on Ray Charles album "Thanks for bringing love around again". What a lot of people don't know is that B. Osborne was a good singer in his own right singing some of the vocals for many of LTD's songs as well as the fact his son has taken up the legacy of producer/artist as well. We'll get a chance to talk to Billy and find out what's new in the Billy Osborne world. He has some new projects he's working on as well as some candid insights into what happened to soul music and where he sees things going.
