Reaches Out For You
CD (Item 480056) Jupiter (Finland), 2009 -- Condition: New Copy
A tremendous second set from Tuomo -- a Finnish singer, but one with a voice to rival that of American soul greats from the 70s! The sound here is a bit more complex than Tuomo's debut -- sometimes in a warm, laidback vibe that reminds us a bit of Hi Records production -- other times with a bit more funk at the bottom, which brings in some darker elements that are mighty nice -- and which almost remind us a bit of Lewis Taylor at times -- another blue-eyed singer that we'd gladly stack Tuomo right up next to! There's a wonderful sound to the songwriting -- tunes that have a classic, rock-solid approach that goes way past simple contemporary soul themes -- bringing in a depth to the record that makes us wonder if this one won't break big on the US market -- if someone's smart enough to actually give Tuomo a chance on this side of the Atlantic. Titles include "Firsts", "Cry To The Moon", "The Grant", "Ordinary", "Love & Friendship", "If It Doesn't Hurt You", "Head Above The Water", and "Fear Of Love". © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc. | ||||||
