A long-awaited new release from both Kimberlite and
The Estimations who's "Can't Do This To Me" sold out quickly
and now commands three figures on the re-sale market.
This is how Kimberlite describe the new single due for release on 10 Dec
2021 but available to
pre-order
from 1 Dec:
"The A side, "Heart Of Stone" brings fuzz guitar, 4/4 drums, and a Levi Stubbs lead with haunting
backing vocals to set a Norman-Whitfield-psychedelia-inspired soundscape for
repressed lovers. If you’ve spent your life getting hurt, it’s near
impossible to trust and give yourself to someone completely. This song
is a hymn for the inhibited, rejected and pained out there who aren’t ready
to get back in “the ring”.
Turn over the disc and "Don’t Go Kissin’ My Baby" maintains the Motown theme with a bouncy bubblegum-soul arrangement,
this time more typical of mid-60s Frank Wilson or Smokey Robinson
productions. Not only are we still in Mr. Gordy’s sphere of
influence, but we’re also keeping the continuity here with the subject of
trouble in relationships."
Blue-eyed 'neo' Northern Soul ... I'll let you make your own mind up!
