Psychedelic soul releases, week 41

This week's psychedelic soul releases spotlight rare recordings and reimagined classics, from a newly unearthed Prince live album to a collaborative single by Olympia Vitalis and Common Saints. Works by ALA.NI and Adrian Younge, Thundercat's sonic experiment, and a reinterpreted 'Leave Me Alone' by Ghost Funk Orchestra reflect the genre's evolving textures and deep roots. The Prince Estate's release of 'Calabama' and the reappraisal of a 1980 Earth Wind & Fire classic underline ongoing conversations about artistic intent and legacy. A long-lost collaboration between The Isley Brothers, Earth Wind & Fire, and El DeBarge adds to the season's archival revelations.
