Following his recent success with "Not Possible", and the ensuing
remixes, Cornell CC Carter drops a new album "Next Life" in collaboration with Izipho Soul tomorrow (8 Oct 2021). It's a
very strong set of twelve original songs and one cover (NB the lead
track is a spoken intro). Speaking of covers ... the artwork was
designed by none other than Mr SoulSorts Roger Williams.
The highlights, for me, are the stepper "I'm Here", "In The Moment" (a touch of Marvin Gaye influence), "Sho Nuff" (sweet soul ballad written by Rod Temperton and recorded by Heatwave
in 1976 on their debut album "Too Hot To Handle" as "Sho'nuff Must Be
Luv"), "Next Life", "Experience" and "Real" but there's not a bad track on the whole set.
In addition to the CD release of the album, four selections are lined up
for vinyl release over two 45s. The first one is also released
tomorrow "Don't you Love It" c/w "Real" posted earlier this week.
UPDATE As of this morning (8 Oct 2021) the album is also available as a digital download on DSP's e.g. Amazon.
