Marie Knight And Her Singers ‎– Lord I've Tried – Used LP instrumental From there

From there

Casual Corner finds the cagey veterans of Portland’s early aughts scene reaching for new sonic heights while maintaining their fat trimmed riffage that earned them acclaim

or at least as challenging

which makes it even more fun

and others from that soul-jazz scene
