    We enjoyed comping Volume one so much and had such a positive response, we went right onto producing For the Love Of You Volume 2.

    Having bumped this in the car for months I can assure you Sam's selection here probably betters the first. Again it is strictly soul covers featuring interpretations of Grover Washington Jr., Midnight Star, Meli'sa Morgan and Simply Red and loads more.
