It's that time again folks. Something for the romantics, the soul heads and anybody feeling them blues. The result of a bit of an experiment I decided to conduct, there is no mixing involved here (bar the last 3 songs). Instead this is an exercise in song selection, which resulted in a journey that will hopefully take your soul for a ride through all the shades of blue, with some brief pit stops in the territory of a few other colours to keep things fresh.
