A drop of blood falls and mingles with the DNA of the others. Kinship is declared - brothers under the skin ! A soul sister is co-opted. How could she be left out ? A promise is made and kept. Tunes will shared - some favorite, some obscure - all souldies. Into the red-hot crucible they go; what emerges is pure gold ...
