Introducing Darlene Love
New - Vinyl - 88875 13230 1
Sealed 2015 2LP 180gm Gatefold Original With Custom Hype Sticker On Shrink. "Steven Van Zandt Is The Producer And Idea Man Behind Introducing Darlene Love, A Grand-Scale Album Designed To Give Love The Glossy Showcase She Deserves. Van Zandt's Production, However, Most Often Aims To Emulate Spector's Widescreen Singles Of The '60s, And As A Consequence Most Of The Songs On Introducing Seem Determined To Move Love Back Into The Past, Despite The Presence Of Fine New Material From Noted Love Admirers Elvis Costello, Bruce Springsteen, Joan Jett, Linda Perry, Jimmy Webb, And Van Zandt (Whose "Among The Believers," A Passionate Political Number, Is One Of The Few Moments On This Album That Feels Honestly Contemporary). But If The Album Is Sometimes Too Busy And Big For Its Own Good, Love Triumphs Over It All; She Was In Her Mid-Seventies When These Tracks Were Recorded, But No One Would Ever Guess, As She Sounds As Strong, Passionate, And Precise As She Did When She Was Cutting Those Classic Crystals Singles, And When She Belts Out "Forbidden Nights," "Just Another Lonely Mile," Or "Who Under Heaven," Introducing Is Truly A Convincer, Proving Darlene Love Still Holds The Title Of One Of Rock And R&B's Greatest Vocalists. And The Final Two Tracks, "Marvelous" And "Jesus Is The Rock (That Keeps Me Rollin')," Shows Her Gospel Chops Are As Strong As (Maybe Even Stronger Than) Her Secular Gifts. In Short, Introducing Darlene Love Doesn't Show Off Many New Wrinkles Of Her Talent, But If You Want To Know If Love Still Has What It Takes To Make A Great Record, This Album Shows The Answer Is An Unambiguous "Absolutely!"
