Lee Fields and The Expressions reflect what's truly missing in modern music. I first picked up this album a year ago and knew then that it was something special. it is reminiscent of classic soul, yet it is something new this great artist and his musicians have crafted. The instrumentation and vocals are deep and rich with complexity.The sonic quality of this project cannot be overstated. the horns and what sounds like electronic organs intertwine masterfully with the voice of Fields.
I used to have this song on my ipod til my comp crashed last year. Thank goodness for youtube this live version is even better. To me soul has no color.
I am African American and 35 yrs old...I am so glad that there is music out there like this. Lee is bringing back soul. I don't care what color the band is....they are paying homage to the old skool! There needs to be more Black bands but the powers that be have eliminated that from today's R&B. We have The Roots and who else?? But these guys aren't stealing...they are a tribute to soul band!! I love it!
@HaliB75 This maybe wrong of me but I can't help but notice the color of the band.
This is a beautiful thing that we now live in a country where blacks and whites can get together and happily play good music together. A gorgeous thing...
This is really great. How cool is it that somebody out there still diggs and plays this stuff? He would be great singing it's a man's world by James Brown too.
apparently so i can annoy folks like yourself, oh and by the way lee's band is so pasty and white, kinda like shawn bradley. have fun and have a good day.
In fact let's keep race out of our lives entirely. It serves no positive purpose whatsoever. Unless you're an arms dealer or someone who benefits from sowing hatred.
that drummer is solid, in the pocket...thumbs up to the entire band... just saw them at the bellhouse on new years... super good!!
