$12.9914.99
A record with a freaky sort of cover, but one that's got this very laidback, down to earth vibe – almost like a small funk combo taking on territory from 70s AOR, but serving things up with a much looser, easygoing sort of style! The vocals are great – blue-eyed soul, and compressed ... read moreCD

El Michels return again to the Wu-Tang chambers – and the results this time might even be better than before!
