New Music: Jamie Lidell

Jamie Lidell has been releasing EPs or full-length albums for about a decade now, but his most recent album, Jim, hits all the right notes.  Part funk, part soul, and a whole lot of “Minneapolis Sound,” Lidell helps revive one of the greatest eras of music. Check out this track:
