Introducing Danny Johnson (Japanese paper sleeve edition)
CD (Item 595018) First American/Vivid (Japan), 1978 — Condition: New Copy
Stone smooth grooves from the overlooked Danny Johnson – a mellow soul masterpiece from the 70s – and one that's well worth checking out! Danny's got a hell of a sweet voice – nice and high, almost in an Eddie Holman style – which is perfect for the album's mellow ballads, and it's great way of mixing older fragile soul modes with a warmer late 70s modern soul approach! The great Tom Tom 84 arranged – and you can definitely feel lots of his touches on the record – a totally mature approach to modern soul – right up there with his best work for bigger artists at the time. Titles include "Future Past", "I Might as Well Forget Loving You", "Dance, Dance, Dance", "Red Hot Mama", and "Be Nice to Me". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
