Superb! | I only saw/heard him in the context of JMT. I had read that he was involved with D'angelo, but i was like, "meh, how good could it be?" (i remember that retarded music video of him naked all over MTV in jr. high). HOWEVER, i picked up voodoo after hearing this one and it's a nice album! haven't really "listened listened" to it thru and thru yet, but it's pretty good so far. check it bro. late. |

I accuse you of listening with your eyes. Paul Young is a great singer- very much in the blue eyed soul tradition of Hall & Oates who did this song originally. The sitar is an homage to Philly Soul like "Oh Girl" by the Chi Lites. Granted, it suffers form 80's production, but compared to a lot of stuff going down at that time, this is fairly organic sounding.

Paul Young WAS a great singer, unfortunately he has had something happen to his voice in recent years and now he can hardly hold a note  . But back in the day he really was the man. Everyone who likes a little rocking soul should check his work with the QTips.
Just think without PY and his producer mixing his first 2 solo albums bass heavy we may never have been aware of Pino.

I can understand why some Pino fans were disappointed a bit..
1. the album is a *little* overproduced (at least enough that the bass is slightly less forward as the live albums)
HOWEVER,
When Pino's voice is heard in the mix, it sounds nice. He is colorful and tasteful, but perhaps less so than that which the JMT required. |

(although they did have a lush, smooth sound to them). I don't know why a sitar would be an homage, since there is none in "Oh Girl". The sitar craze of mid-late 60s was all but over by 1970.

'Didn't I blow your mind this time' had sitar- can't recall the artist.
