Editorial Reviews
As a world-renowned soul singer who Smokey Robinson calls "Aretha Joplin," Joss has sold over 11 million records globally. She has also a Grammy winner, five-time Grammy nominee, and the recipient of two Brit Awards.
Stone has established her own label, Stone d Records, hence the title of the first album to come out on the label, LP1. It is the first album Joss has recorded with total creative freedom. She co-wrote and co-produced it with super-producer and Eurythmics co-founder, Dave Stewart. Together they immersed themselves into a rock n; soul musical odyssey in Nashville, Tennessee.

BUY LP 1 BY JOSS STONE IF...
1. You're already a fan and you've been hoping for an album that will be better than the last two albums.
2. You've recently discovered Joss Stone and don't mind starting with her present work and working back to her more well known stuff.
3. You've got soul, a nose ring, and a bit of an attitude (or you've got soul and attitude and are still working up to that nose ring).
4. You recently went through a breakup or are in the middle of a breakup and need a soul sister to sing you through it. Extra points for a breakup with someone who is a liar.
5. You recently reconciled with someone or discovered a new love - preferably someone you might drive all night for or someone with whom you might want to have a picnic.
6. Phrases like "Karma's your master and you're the b _ tch," or "I'm a girl that don't give a sh _ t," or "...getting all messed up by f _ _ _ing fireside" don't bother you - you're not offended at all, rather you're all like "hell yeah, tell it like it is sister!"
7. You're cool with an album ratio of approximately eight good songs to four so-so songs.
8. You don't mind an album that is front loaded with all the best songs, then slows down in the last third, but...the slow last third of the album includes a melodic little duet about having a picnic.
9. You don't feel too let down when the best song on the album is also the first song on the album.
10. Sexy, funky, soulful songs sung by rich-throated, growly, blonde British tarts get your mojo working.

"LP1" is the fifth studio album Joss Stone has recorded and is one of her best. The blues-rock influences with subtle country undertones suit her voice perfectly. Her ability to sound sultry one minute and smokey the next is her signature. The production on LP1 is fresh and crisp, and the music is awesome. "Newborn" is the album's first track, and it shows Stone's growth not only as a singer but also as a songwriter. She showcases her angelic voice mixed with a touch of rasp and the result is amazing. "Karma" has a funk-like feel to it and her voice is as soulful as ever. This song has a hint of R&B to it with electronic keyboards, an incredible bass line, and a cool drum pattern. "Don't Start Lying To Me Now" has a definite swagger and a honky-tonk blues feel. "Last One to Know" is Stone's take on a rock-based anthem and is about a scorned lover who can't picture falling in love again. "Drive All Night" is a ballad, and the soul in Stone's voice is amazing. She is one of the few vocalists out there that can make the listener feel what's inside them just by hearing her voice. "Take Good Care" is nothing more then Stone's voice and Dave Stewart's acoustic guitar. While it's a simple arrangement, the results are powerful. It's just another example of Stone's ability to be a kitty cat one minute and a tiger the next. I know there will be some people who want to hear an album similar to her 2003 debut "The Soul Sessions," and those people will be disappointed. That said, LP1 is a terrific album with some killer songs. Highly recommended!

I've enjoyed her last two albums, but I'm barely able to get through the second listen on this one. Joss Stone has a great voice (or so I used to think), but this album features everything negative about her voice: whiny, overly raspy. There's no soul or groove here, at least none that is pleasurable to me.

Very underrated, non promoted, excellent CD.
Great song, great production and Joss sings the hell out of the songs. Needed to be promoted much move and it would have done better in sales.

Disappointing
Joss Stone used to be on my auto-buy list but after this album she's not an auto-buy anymore. This album seems disjointed and scattered and there is little to no structure. Read more

AMAZING!
Beautiful cover art. Amazing music. One of the best purchases I have made in a while! Almost every song on this album is sung so well it is hard to believe.

Good CD and enjoyed seeing she came out with another CD. This is different music for me, I usually buy Country.
