1CD - UK Import

Soul music has always been in Paul Weller's blood from early Jam covers of Martha & the Vandellas 1963 classic 'Heatwave'.

Along with other forms of music, soul found it's way into Paul's record collection, nourishing his ears and informing his own songwriting. We don't need to recap a questing musical career from the Jam to the Style Council and then blossoming into one of the most productive and revered careers of any UK solo artist. Paul has written anthems, standards and a songbook that have always developed from his own feelings.

Whilst Paul has talked about his love of soul music he has, before now, simply been too busy to sit down and curate a collection of his favourite tracks and get it into the record racks.

Ace Records are honoured and delighted to finally release that Paul Weller curated collection which he has aptly titled, "That Sweet Sweet Music". This 2-LP set and CD open the curtains on 26 tracks that are some of Paul's favourite soul records most of which nestle on vinyl in his own collection. He can still recall paying £70 for his copy of Jon Lucien's 1971 'Search For The Inner Self' 7" at a record shop in Leicester in the 90s. Some of these tracks are soul classics like James Carr's 1966 'Pouring Water On A Drowning Man' and Brother to Brother's brilliant take on Gil Scott Heron and Brian Jackson's 'In The Bottle' from 1974. Others are deliciously obscure wonderous gems like the A-side of Blackrock's sole 1971 single 'Blackrock "Yeah, Yeah"', 'Life Walked Out' from the same year by the Mist or Syl Johnson's 'Black Balloons' taken from his 1970 album "Is It Because I'm Black?". There are plenty of big vocal hitters such as Darrell Banks, Spinners, Joe Simon, O.C. Smith, the Dells and Betty Davis. Whilst the core is vocal soul the music does branch out with Paul selecting a wicked instrumental from the flipside of the Isley Brothers' 'Twist & Shout' from 1962 and the funky jazz of the Headhunters 'God Made Me Funky', the A-side of their first 1975 seven-inch. Paul has not only written an introduction but the way he has curated the music allows each side of the vinyl and the CD to flow like a river taking the listener on a journey through some of his favourite music.

Tax Hero!
Format: Paperback
I was scraping pennies for supplies in my small coffee shop located in the lowest level of an office building in Cleveland, OH. "Bookkeeping" consisted of a greasy shoe box nestled in the corner near the window. Tax wasn't an immediate concern because I barely had enough to pay rent. Several years passed. The box became larger and greasier. A friendly customer asked whom I would suggest for tax filing. I said, "When you find someone, let me know." When he visited again, he gave me a business card. By now, the box was bulging. I would have been embarrassed to approach a total stranger, but my customer was kind and I imagined his connection being the same. I got a cleaner, newer box and stuffed receipts corner to corner for facing the music. What does my story have to do with Doug's book? That scary first filing with the kindest person I've met in my long entrepreneurial career taught me a valuable lesson. By the time the accountant stopped laughing at my "bookkeeping", he said, "I'm going to help you this year because you're trying to be a serious business person, but don't ever come to my office again with a shoebox. You have to keep records even if its time consuming. You also need to be incorporated, I'll help." Lucky you! You have a hero.....Doug Collins.

Game Changing Information!
I bought this book months ago and like many others, it found its way to a pile of books I like to call "I'll read them eventually". Yesterday was eventually. A simple read, finished it in one sitting and came away with mountains of info that will save me thousands and even get me money back on previous years taxes. Great info on tax investing strategies as well, well worth the purchase price, and I can't wait to write it off!!

Great advice & tips
Format: Kindle
This book is helpful to new business owners with little to no experience with business tax preparation. I had about 5 pages that was helpful to me because I have had my small business for 8 years and familiar with some of the home based business write offs but there was some useful information that. Are it worth the read.
