MHem [2024] - Little Sunflower [Pax Stereo]


An artist we've followed since his debut(?) album, "Friends With Benefitsin Sep last year is MHem (Mario Hemsely MD). We're pleased to see that his latest album of covers,"One Night Stand", has been gaining attention, especially for the vocal version of Kool & The Gang's "Summer Madness".

He has a new single out, a track not on the album, which is another cover. This time of jazz trumpeter Freddie Hubbard's "Little Sunflower" originally written by Hubbard as an instrumental and released on his 1967 "Backlash" album. It was re-recorded in 1979 with Al Jarreau adding lyrics and vocals which this new version is based on. It was released as a single from Hubbard's "The Love Connection" album in 1979.

As with the last two albums the vocalist is once again Derran Day. The song is a whopping 12:34, over 3 minutes longer than Hubbard's 1979 album version, so unlikely to get radio exposure without being significantly truncated.

Most definitely one for the 'chin strokers'!
