Timely reissue of this impossibly rare 1981 indie soul/boogie album, Virginia native Van Jones had a string of 45s under his belt before he tried his luck with his only full length release ‘Time Has Made Me New’. The ‘Good Times’ vibe of ‘Not About That’ is the DJs choice from this album, the pacey disco/funker ‘Say Ow Ow Ow’ and the breezy ‘She’s FFFF’ both first surfaced on 45s prior to the album, ‘Lets Go This Go’ again touches on indie disco while the slow burner title track ‘Time Has Made Me New’ is one for fans of ballads. ‘Loving And Hugging’ is a great stripped back modern dancer with less production but better for it – probably up there with the first track as the standout cut. A brief but intriguing 8 track offering. Limited press….don’t miss this one!
