Sweet Soul Music At It's Finest, August 3, 2003
This review is from: Times Like These (Audio CD)
Times Like These, an outstanding mix of originals and covers, (his 3rd on Severn), is the highly anticipated follow up to his 2001 W.C. Handy Award nominated I Like It That Way, (for Soul / Blues Album Of The Year). With echoes of R&B and Blues greats both dear and departed, the work sounds as if it was lifted from the shelf of the Stax studio library - Sweet Soul Music at its finest! As evidence try to resist singing along to the definitive closer, "Right Here At Home", a cross between Sam Cooke's "Havin' A Party" and "That's Where It's At". It should be put on a tape loop, and just play on..."pull out that Jackie Wilson record..."

Again and again..., July 9, 2008
This review is from: Times Like These (Audio CD)
Just bought the CD in a internet-store in Germany - had the chance to see him live but missed it.. Very very sad! An absolut GREAT record in best tradition of the good ol' stuff (Stax/Atlantic)! Best album of the last 12 (or even more) months for me! It's in my CD player and it keeps on playin again and again.. Thanx for that great music!
