What a great voice! What a powerful character, control and determination! Mighty Sam McClain is an amazing singer with a huge talent and a faultless wild voice Probably he is now one of the best representants of avat-garde soul music You will find along the cd a variety of stylistic musical flavours and savours coming from such a different but, at the same time, so close artists like Neville Brothers, Quincy Jones, Al Green, Aretha Franklin, Little Milton or even West Montgomery McClain cleverly investigates into the romantic roots of classic passionate soul, together with funky, gospel, blues, jazz and disco music, all with deep influences and musical arrangements coming from sixties, seventies and eighties years but updated with the most actual sound performed by outstanding musicians The cd is a real treasure that shows the genuine rhythm & blues, ballad and soul spirit that comes out from the deepest part of the heart of an amazing totally honest singer Thirteen varied good selected songs, with lush arrangement, a flamboyant production and an extreme professionality and taste
