A Low-Budget Impressions,
By Andre M. "brnn64" (Mt. Pleasant, SC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tellin' It Like It Is: Mala Sessions (Audio CD)
The music of the Van Dykes, here from a 1966 album with some extra cuts, sound very much like a low-budget version of Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions (with the lead singer's falsetto and the somewhat crude studio acoustics). But a poor man's Impressions sounds a lot better than a lot of high-budget things that are recorded today, and the lowgrade recording somewhat adds to the charm of this collection (brings to mind a group of guys harmonizing in the bathroom of an inner-city high school). So while it may not be an essential purchase, it has it's own quirky appeal and is certainly worth a listen or two.
