Soul Strutter: Kem [2021] - Love Always Wins (Deluxe) [Motown] (Full Album)

Kem's album "Love Always Wins" was in my end of year selections as one of the best albums of 2020. On 24 Sep 2021 an extended 'Deluxe' version was released with an additional two tracks, which is hardly sufficient for you to rush out and buy it in my view as both 'new' tracks are simply remixes of "Lie To Me" (released as a single in July) and "Not Before You".

But, as I didn't post the full album last year (as it was pre-Spotify embedding days), I think the album is well worthy of re-posting. If you missed it first time around then give it a listen and even if you didn't, remind yourself of just how good it is!

Re-visiting what I wrote about the album last year I note that three tracks also featured amongst the best singles of the year. It was very pleasant listening again to "Lonely" (featuring Brian Culbertson on keyboards) in particular, but also the title track duet with Erica Campbell. The new mix of "Not Before You", which features Eric Hudson, I feel is an upgrade to the original version.
