My World
CD (Item 465555) Truth & Soul, 2009 -- Condition: New Copy
One of the best new soul records we've heard in years -- a tremendous accomplishment for the mighty Lee Fields, and a set that's quite different than any of his other work! We've always loved Lee's funk and deep soul sides, but this album's something new altogether -- almost done in the hard-edge, downtempo mode of the east coast harmony scene of the late 60s and early 70s -- like some of the best group soul work coming out of New Jersey or Philly, with some super-dope production and instrumentation that's really amazing! The grooves follow strongly in the same laidback style as recent El Michels work -- no surprise, given the El Michels connection to the music -- with beats that are hard, but slow -- and instrumentation that's funky, but in a mellow sort of way. Lee's vocals are as deep as ever -- very much trained in the James Brown tradition, but turned here towards a really unique groove that makes us completely reevaluate his talents -- an amazing achievement not just for Fields, but also for the whole Truth & Soul/El Michels crew! An instant classic -- with tracks that include "My World", "Ladies", "Expressions Theme", "Honey Dove", "Money I$ King", "Love Comes & Goes", "Do You Love Me", and "Last Ride". © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc. | |||||
