Raphael Saadiq New Album...The Return To Vintage Soul

You know how bad the music scene is these days....so its rarity for me to be excited about new music release. But after the phenomenal release by Mr. Al Green, I am starting to get my musical taste back again.

Now, the little birds are telling me that I have another album to look forward to: Raphael Saadiq. I don't know what it is about the brother, but I think its because that I have grown up listening to Tony, Toni, Tone, his intricate bass lines that I love to follow, and his numerous songwriting assists he has done over the years, I just can't wait. According to reports, Saadiq has taken it back to the old school and is really trying to extract that vintage Motown soul sound. The late 60's-70's is my favorite decade about all things soul music. So, I am really looking forward to this new release.

Riding his coattails, is Mr. Michael "D'Angelo" Archer. Virgin(correct me if I am wrong) has just released a greatest hits album (so far) and we can expect to his new album early 2009. So, will I be able to go to Best Buy now and don't leave empty handed? I guess time will tell! Stay tuned and go pick up that Al Green album and get to lovin' and thats an order!!

Take It Easy!!
