Digging yet deeper and more devastatingly in the gospel bins of the Black Atlantic, HGZII has its genesis in work undertaken for Kanye West and the Sunday Service in Wyoming, before enfleshment and fine-tuning back at home in the City of Angels.
Invoking The Delfonics’ Do You Remember, and flipping its melody the other way around. Recorded at the Damon Studios in Kansas City (owned by Victor Damon, inventor of the spring reverb).
Soul heaven, and magnificently comprehensive: the Northern anthem in amongst Chicago riches like top-notch Curtis songs you may not have heard and stone classics getting their first run out. Jerry’s younger bro.
Classic soul sides rewound as state-of-the-art dance music: brilliant, epic house; hard-funk breakbeat.
CD from Kent.
Private-press gospel boogie from Michigan band Cash Money, featuring full brass and vocal harmony. Plus some ace, synthy, slap-bass, choral gospel soul from Ricky Womack in 1990, in the tradition of the great DJ Rogers.
