CD Reviews

The Sound of Philly Meets The Sound of Curtis
Eddie Landsberg | Tokyo, Japan | 06/06/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"As the story goes, on more than one occasion, when William DeVaughan's grooves would hit the air waves, people would actually start going into record stores asking the clerk, "Yeah, gimme that new Curtis Mayfield record they've been playing on the radio." - - The comparison goes without saying, and although DeVaughan did write and sing like Curtis, his songs stood out in their own right too - - in fact I believe the Impressions actually covered a few... all in all, this is a great mix of the Philly Sound (where most the tracks came out of) and the Curtom sound... and definitely, if you're a lover of sweet (but bumpin') soul, you can't get much better than that. (Favorite track by the way - - Give The Little Man a Great Big Hand, and You Gave Me A Brand New Start... though come to think of it, I like 'em all !) - - Hmmmm ,suddenly I'm in the mood for some Willie Hutch !"

"Finally, the original version of "Be Thankful." One of the first rip-offs that happened to me on Amazon was to buy an import album (CD) containing the song ($20+US). I found out the hard way that the song was a sort-of remix. It sucked - and I was totally mad. Well, my lesson learned was to patiently wait for this album to come out and get it at a good price. Five stars for a classy (soul) artist and his work!"
