Soul Junction 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Jesse James, the revered cult soul man, delivers once again with 'Back On Top Again'. Despite his lack of recognition in his home country, James is celebrated across the UK and Europe for his authentic, old-school Southern soul sound. Now in his 80s, James continues to impress with this latest offering, maintaining the high quality seen in his previous releases with Soul Junction. The album features soulful mid-tempo grooves reminiscent of classic Malaco-style Southern soul, with tracks like 'Another Love Lay Over' and 'Keep It On The Hush Hush' standing out as highlights. James's cover of Harvey Scales' 'I'd Be A Fool 2 Fool Around On You' is particularly exceptional, showcasing his soulful vocals and emotive delivery. With tracks like 'I Lost My Baby On Facebook' adding contemporary commentary and 'What Happened To The O-O Wee' providing sonic variety, Back On Top Again is standout example to James's enduring talent and commitment to the soul genre. It's soul as it was and soul as it should be.
