MIKE PANTELI presents SWEET GROOVES

Here is Part Two of my Maurice White ‪Tribute Specials. In light of his passing back in February it's only right that we pay respect to a true music legend. I shall be telling his story as a musician, songwriter, producer, band leader and vocalist. This episode is packed full of classic Earth Wind & Fire

A special edition of Sweet Grooves in conversation with Soul legend and Shalamar front man Howard Hewett. Talking about his time in the group, his musical roots and his solo career. Plus I'll also be playing unheard excerpts from last years interview with Jeffrey Daniel on his work with Michael Jackson. All this along with classic Shalamar & Howard Hewett tracks.

This show is all about Reflection. It's about Peace, Understanding & Brotherly Love. Message music, Gospel Music, all that kind of flavour throughout. As always it's music from the soul, for the soul.
