4.0 out of 5 stars Are you ready for Russell Taylor?, June 23, 2007

This review is from: Somewhere In Between (Audio CD)

Russell Taylor's music can be found comfortably nestled between the intense and raucous pentameter we call Rock and soulful, 70's inspired, Philadelphia grooves reminiscent of McFadden and Whithead. As hard as it was for me to come up with this definition for the man's music, it was even harder to decipher the man himself. Upon further review I found myself inspired at the way he has merged the chasms of his life to not only become complete physically but spiritually. It is this zen-like composure that I found most fascinating in his debut CD, Somewhere In Between.

He has carefully crafted a lifetime into his debut CD; experiences that in totality, have etched out a not-so-ordinary musical journey spanning Rock, Gospel, Soul, and R&B. Seamless in it's construct you might not realize that you have been taken to school, cleverly disguised in the form of 16 live studio tracks.

Are you ready for Russell Taylor? If you answered yes then you are more than a few steps ahead of me because Somewhere In Between is anything but. This CD is a commitment to the height of the Philadelphia sound. If you listen closely you will hear cues from the Stylistics, Billy Paul and Blue magic. This release is an unabashed homage to Philadelphia's rich past and a well constructed look into what's to come.

I purchased this CD with great anticipation. The 1st one arrived and I was unable to play it in any of my CD devices (car, computer, portable, home stereo/dvd player) I promptly returned it only to have the second one do the same thing. Very disappointing!
