An acid soul masterpiece that combines urban sophistication and passion.This is the debut album from Simon Booth's jazz soul unit, featuring sophisticated grooves reminiscent of London nights and Juliet Roberts' soulful vocals. The sophisticated horns and rhythm section are dynamic, blending soul, jazz, and funk effortlessly. Tracks like "Inner City Blues" and "Venceremos" combine political and poetic sentiments, strikingly coexisting social messages with club-like euphoria. Juliet Roberts' vocals are warm yet powerful, forming the core of the sound. The urban, stylish sound directly links to the later acid jazz movement, and the album is regarded as an important work of '80s UK soul. |
