The Reel People collective is back in action, and maybe sounding even better than on their first Love album – thanks to a sublime array of guest vocalists – including Eric Roberson, Raheem DeVaughn, Chante Cann, Paula, Michael Champion, and others! The vibe is great – uplifting and positive, with a style that's a nice change from both mainstream soul and club – that special sort of vibe we've always loved from the sort of underground work like this – which seems to be harder and harder to find as the years go on! In a world of stray digital cuts, we're even more grateful than ever for a full length set like this – as Reel People definitely deliver the goods, on titles that include "I Never Knew", "Save A Lil Love", "Everything's So Crazy", "If I Was Your Man", "Fly", "Deja Vu", "Dance In Her Eyes", and "Vibe". (New Grooves, Neo Soul) CD

A great collection from the Soul Togetherness scene – a name that can always be trusted to deliver a smoothly grooving tune! Most of the work here is contemporary, but the set includes a few classics too – key cuts that help support the older-styled vibe that's present in the newer cuts here – an approach to soul music that echoes some of the best American work of the late 70s/early 80s modern years – that smooth-without-slick approach that we've always loved so much. Titles include "Let The Love" by Bennson, "Amazing" by Reel People, "Tonight" by Peo with Mirjam, "Woman In Love" by Sophia Nelson, "Caught Up In A Whirlwind" by Richard Stepp, "When Love Comes Calling" by George Gbenson, "Cuz It's You Girl" by James Walsh Gypsy Band, "What Have I Got To Lose" by Jean Wells, "My People" by Teddy Pendergrass, "B Side Of Love" by Gina Foster, and "Adore U" by Sherree Brown.
