Good collection of less-obvious Motown numbers, Valerie Simson’s down home funker ‘Drink The Wine’ is a good start while Bottom And Company’s ‘Gonna Find A True Love’ is an anthemic slab of modern soul with a groove. Eddie Hendrick’s ‘Keep On Truckin’ is laced with vibes while Marvin Gaye’s ‘Closing Jimmy’s’ is a top pick from Trouble Man. Syreeta’s awesome dark end, sorrowful funker “To Know You Is To Love You” is a big moment, Puzzle’s expansive fusion number ‘Haiku’ and Grover Washington’s ‘Mr magic’ are both good jazzier touches while Commodore’s bright and breezy ‘Brick House’ has that bump in full effect.
