Dave Thorley Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) Thanks Steve for the kind words, this has been a bit of a labour of love and I have mention this project on here before. But now at long last the limited press vinyl LP has left the pressing plant and is currently waiting to clear customs as I write. Planned release date is about the second week on june and it will be availble from ourselves, that nice man Fish, Gary Dennis and a few others. Here's a little more about the project. ' Todays Soulful Sound Of Detroit' Is a project we got involved in a couple of years ago in Detroit, the end result is this LP. This has been a labour of love for all parties involved, produced on a limited budget with many giving their time free, just to make it happen. This LP shows that Detroit still has 'Soul' and an abundance of talent in the city. The 'Powerhouse behind this project has been song writer/arranger Tim King, who pulled together artists and musicians who live in the neighbour hoods near him on the westside of the city to record a cool selection of tracks. He also called upon the skills of legendary producer Clay McMurray (Thelma, Motown, Undisputed Truth) to assist in pulling all the elements together. All the material on this set is new and never before released, with the exception of 'Funk Factor's, Give It What Cha Got', which did appear on an earlier CD incarnation of the project and was the single piece of music that got us hooked and involved. The lead singer on this, is one Gerald Mallory of 80's 'Lay it down on me' fame This track has already been getting rave reviews, from those we have sent demos to and killer dance floor reaction ever time it's played out.The album includes a cool mix of styles, Steppers, Ballads, Uptempo Dancers and R&B Flava's. We look forward to your support in the promotion of this 'Labour Of Love', which is our way of putting a little back into a musical city that has given many of us so much.
