We've had a series of singles this year from The Sextones from Nevada
since their signing to Italy's, Milan based, Record Kicks
label.
The first three consisted of cover versions (Jean Plum's "Here I Go Again", Papa Bear & His Cubs "You're So Fine" and The Intruders "Cowboys To Girls") with their latest ("Better Late Than Never") an original song.
They have an album "Love Can't Be Borrowed" due on 29 Sep '23 and are releasing a limited edition 7" of two
original songs from it, "Without You" and the title track "Love Can't Be Borrowed" which is a great little crossover tune which I anticipate will appeal
to the UK rare soul scene in particular and is rhythmically similar to Milton Parker's rarity "Women Like It Harder".
The single is available on several vinyl dealer's sites (e.g. Simply Soul, Juno) to pre-order for release on 16 Jun '23
The album is produced by Kelly Finnigan (The Monophonics) and we are
told is 'drenched with 60s/70s era-defining tunes inspired by The
Moments, Baby Huey, The Delfonics, and especially the late Curtis
Mayfield'.
At the beginning of May we posted samples of the two tracks to be
released on vinyl and today the A side "Without You" has been released digitally. It is the second single pre-released
from the new album following "Better Late Than Never". Also included
below is a sample for "Love Can't Be Borrowed".

These young whites have understood the soul feeling well and their album should be very interesting. Indeed "Love Can't Be Borrowed" has an air of similarity with the extremely rare Milton Parker (whose B side is also good, for the anecdote).
