Product Description
"...Beautiful songs. Beautiful singing. A little cold steel string finger picking, some warm Sunday Hammond organ mixed in with a dollop of gooey electric piano. Hang in for the ending, there's a Marvin Gaye cover coming down like Sunday Morning. Damn, I can't get enough of this shit!..." - Chuck Prophet
"A nice "summer soul" feel. He... know(s) how to make an ass wiggle. jazzanova keyboards... really interesting song structures. I hate referencing but we all do it...so if you like Mark Hollis, Marvin Gaye (there's a nice cover here of "Where Are We Going"), and more recent influences such as D'Angelo, Alicia Keys (vocal stacking), you'll love this disc." --Josh Rouse
"Unlike some sensitive singer-songwriter types who lean toward melodrama, Curt Perkins keeps his inner diva in check on his solo debut, Get Something Started. Besides, with a voice as lovely as his, a little emoting is called for. His knack for teetering along the edge of falsetto, whether to confess or seduce, at times recalls the greats of Motown, at others Jeff Buckley. Like his sometime employer Josh Rouse, Perkins clearly loves early-..70s soul..a couple of tracks on the album, particularly ..Another Love Story,.. sound like they could have been outtakes from Marvin Gaye's What's Going On. (Perkins even covers the Gaye classic ..Where Are We Going?..) Other songs run the gamut from the dreamy pop of the title track to the sultry Brazilian rhythms of ..California,.. which gives Al Green's ..Tired of Being Alone.. a run for the title of Song Most Likely to Get You Laid.
