“What Can We Do?” is an album that confirms the magnificent comeback of The Anthony Paule Soul Orchestra together with the exceptional singer Willy Jordan, released by the prestigious Nola Blue Records label.
This vibrant production strengthens the musical and songwriting chemistry led by one of San Francisco’s most respected retro-soul and soul-blues orchestras. From the very first track, Anthony Paule’s precise guitar work masterfully combines with the powerful horn section and Tony Lufrano’s organ performance. The recording stands out for a repertoire fulfilled with carefully arranged original tracks that pay direct tribute to the 60’s and 70’s golden era. Willy Jordan’s voice, gifted with an amazing warmth and expressiveness, shines brightly on remarkable tracks like the energetic and catchy “You Lie Like A Rug”. Furthermore, the twelve-piece instrumentation drives all songs with absolute elegance without ever taking up the melodic lines.
With the faultless production of Larry Batiste, each song showcases a fantastic sonic maturity and stylistic connection. Tracks like “Bigger Guitar” and the title one feature deep, sophisticated rhythmic textures.
“What Can We Do?” positions itself as a must-listen release, becoming the real proof of the enduring vitality of contemporary soul.
