19B. BONUS BEATS - Unbreak My Chart: Analysing 1997's UK Album Soul Chart
Another slice of Bonus R&V goodness - this time another fun segment lifted from our latest 1997 Roots and The Vine Time Machine Deep Dive.
Here we turn our attention to the UK Album Soul Chart, as we work through each number 1 album of the year to discover the greatest. In doing so we witness some interesting changes from the start of the year to the end, again representing how much of a turning point 1997 was.
We also relive a somewhat forgotten period in UK Soul History - the post acid jazz, parent friendly pop/soul/funk/house movement that yielded huge album success for the likes of Jamiroquai, The Brand New Heavies, M People and Lisa Stansfield. Plenty of nostalgia for us 30 somethings here - which of these tickle those memory nubbins for you? Expect to hear albums from Erykah Badu, Mary J Blige, Janet Jackson, Eternal, En Vogue, Shola Ama and TWO audio assaults from those icons of drivetime...The Lighthouse Family!
Come geek out on our socials!
