We've had four tracks from it as singles already but the full album "Love Can't Be Borrowed" from The Sextones is finally released today (29
Sep).
The opening track "Daydreaming", whilst not being released digitally, was the flip side to the Colemine
licensed single "Beck & Call" on vinyl and what a lovely track it is which sets up the album nicely.
Then follows three of the singles "Without You", "Better Late Than Never" and the Curtis Mayfield inspired "Beck & Call". The next five tracks are all original compositions, (our picks of the
new songs are "This Could Be Forever" and "Your Love Shines Golden") before the album ends with the title track "Love Can't Be Borrowed".
As we alluded to on the Jalen Ngonda post, this album wil be up there
with the best of the retro soul albums released in 2023 i.e. Jalen Ngonda,
Bobby Harden & The Soulful Saints and, to an extent, October
London.
The Sextones are a quartet from Reno, Nevada formed as The Mark Sexton
Band in 2007. They released two albums under that name ("Multifomity" (2008) and "Listen Out" (2010)) and changed their name to The Sextones in 2015 releasing
their first album using the name, "Moonlight Vision", in 2017.
The current line-up is
Mark Sexton (guitar, vocals), his younger brother Chris (piano),
Alexander Korostinsky (bass) and Daniel Weiss (drums) who have known
each other since childhood.
The latest album as The Sextones is produced by Kelly Finnigan of The
Monophonics.
