The Unknown Beauty

It was my birthday week just gone, and one of the best presents I received was an email from a friend in the US that contained a link to a song on YouTube. Over a week later and I still can't get the song out of my head.

It's that good it has to be shared. And so I give to you 'Didn't I' by Darando, a relatively unknown soul singer from San Francisco who, according to some comments, may or may not have also been a pimp, but who most definitely sounds like a cross between Al Green and Ronald Isley.

Whoever plans the music for the TV show 'Breaking Bad' obviously really knows their stuff, as it recently featured over the end credits to an episode.  It's presumably not a bad way to gain mass exposure for an obscure artist and we're all the better for it.

Enjoy
