商品の紹介
| Just as his 2023 album On & On wasnt a straightforward Erykah Badu tribute, Jose James 2024 follow-up, 1978, isnt merely a throwback to the year of the singers birth. In essence, a little over half of the set achieves release on the dancefloor and in the bedroom, and the remainder is more reflective and sonically adventurous. Sensuality fuels the first side and seeps into the second side, beginning with a pair of caressing ballads frictionized by Jharis Yokleys twists on Dilla-style drunken drums. The next two songs, rhapsodic, slick, and as seductive as what precedes them, evoke prime Heatwave and Off the Wall-era Michael Jackson -- from Chad Selphs driving low-end synthesizer to Marcus Machados wriggling rhythm guitar -- distinguished by James buttery vocals and casual swagger. "Black Orpheus (Dont Look Back)" reverts to ballad mode with a philosophical look at companionship. James cited Leon Ware as an inspiration for the album, and the low-profile Motown legends work, particularly on Marvin Gayes I Want You and his own Musical Massage -- landmarks of quiet storm eroticism issued months apart in 1976 -- is especially felt in the love ballads. 1978s sound and vision open up with "Dark Side of the Sun" ("a prayer for broken-hearted people") and "Place of Worship," global gospel-folk fusions with respective featured appearances from stern Congolese-Belgian rapper Baloji and comforting Brazilian singer/songwriter Xenia Franca. The last two songs are among James heaviest. Backed by only piano and strings, he delivers a poised outpouring of grief on "For Trayvon," masterfully switching in one early line from solemn baritone to despairing falsetto, and staying in the latter range until fadeout. James then returns to his hometown of Minneapolis for "38th & Chicago," the site of George Floyds murder. The energy increases for this second song written in response to a racist killing. Its a rolling groove that, in a way, reimagines Marvin Gayes Whats Going On with Ware involved to apply some Afro-Brazilian influence. The breeziness is certainly at odds with James feelings of terror, anger, and frustration, but its steady propulsion, combined with a burning Machado solo and a Pedrito Martinez conga break, signify resolve, defiance, and power. ~ Andy Kellman |
