Tash Sultana – Terra Firma (2021)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/48 kHz | Time – 01:00:13 minutes | 721 MB | Genre: Indie Rock
Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Lonely Lands Records
One of Australia’s greatest self-made successes, Tash Sultana is a one-person powerhouse who commands multiple instruments and gear, whether on-sage or in-studio. A globe-trotting sensation with a live show that needs to be seen to be believed, the 25-year-old’s second album Terra Firma is a natural evolution of their multi-dimensional jams. The follow-up to 2016’s ARIA-winning Flow State was recorded in a custom-built studio over nearly a year. From the expansive ‘Coma’ to the evocative ‘Greed’, almost every note was composed, arranged, performed and engineered by Tash. Improving significantly as a singer, player, producer and arranger, the solo star – for the first time – opened up to like-minded collaborators, including Matt Corby and Dann Hume, Jerome Farah, and Josh Cashman. Spiritually, Terra Firma finds the artist reconnecting to their roots, returning to earth after the dizzying heights of success, and reminding themselves who they are and what it means to be human. Musically however, its 14 tracks take root into far-reaching sonic territory, departing from loops and layers towards meditative combinations of soul, funk, RnB, folk, rock, hip hop ‘ you name it.

Tommie Young – Do You Still Feel the Same Way (1973/2018)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/44,1 kHz | Time – 28:38 minutes | 304 MB | Genre: R&B
Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Soul Power Records
This is absolute manna from Southern soul heaven. On the strength of the one, long-unavailable 1973 LP that forms the core of this compilation, Tommie Young can stake a claim as perhaps the finest neo-Aretha Franklin stylist among the slew of early-’70s soul sisters. But she was a meteor flare, almost immediately retreating back to the gospel scene that nurtured her, save for singing lead on the soundtrack to A Woman Called Moses, Cicely Tyson’s 1978 film about Harriet Tubman. Granted, Young didn’t have the protean power of Franklin (like anyone did?), so her vocal tone is lighter; but the sensational, effortless, melodic leaps on the commanding title track does nothing to dispel the Franklin impression. “Do We Have a Future?” is punchier and might be rushed for a singer lacking Young’s immaculate phrasing; she’s simply a natural-born singer with the same appealing forthrightness as Irma Thomas. The liner notes say producer Bobby Patterson cut backing tracks to O.V. Wright’s “That’s How Strong My Love Is” and Percy Sledge’s “Take Time to Know Her” (gender-switched here) for her first session and Young just walked in and nailed ’em in one take — and it ain’t hard to believe at all. “You Came Just in Time” finds Young fighting through backing vocal clutter, but the ballads “She Don’t Have to See You (to See Through You)” and “You Brought It All on Yourself” thankfully free her voice back to unadorned basics, with great command of dynamics and phrasing on the latter. Brilliant phrasing also marks the very strong “You Can Only Do Wrong So Long” and she shines again on the more down-home funky “You Can’t Have Your Cake” with some Ann Peebles vocal sass in her delivery.

Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © RCA Deutschland
Es ist kalt in Harlem, New York als Stefan Dettl im Winter mit seinem Trompetenkoffer vor dem verschlossenem Apollo Theater steht. Dort wo Soul-Größen wie James Brown oder Aretha Franklin legendäre Konzerte gaben und die Fans in Extase versetzten, blickt der Chiemgauer auf die großen körnigen Fotoaufnahmen in der Eingangshalle, die immer noch den warmen Glanz jener MoTown-Zeit versprüht. Von München nach New York in einer Nacht: „Einmal in einem kleinen Soul Club in New York zu spielen ohne rauszufliegen” so war die Zielsetzung für das Soultrain- Album, welches Stefan Dettl samt brillianter Bigband ein paar Monate später beim Release Konzert in der ausverkauften Muffathalle in München am 19.03. präsentierte. Der Abend wurde detailverliebt auf einem analogen Tonbandgerät aufgezeichnet und wird am 26.08. digital veröffentlicht.

Shannon Shaw – Shannon In Nashville (2018)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/48 kHz | Time – 39:00 minutes | 491 MB | Genre: Pop, Singer-Songwriter
Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Easy Eye Sound
Shannon Shaw, the captivating vocalist, bassist, and founder of Shannon & the Clams, will strike out on her own for her first solo album, Shannon In Nashville. Produced by The Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach at his Nashville studio, Easy Eye Sound, the album features a cast of revered old-school session musicians which have breathed life into notable records by Elvis Presley, Aretha Franklin, Willie Nelson, and John Prine, to name just a few. The album evokes the tear-jerking intonations of Brenda Lee and Patsy Cline and exudes a self-possessed melancholy that sets the scene for Shaw to comb through a personal history of love lost to time, circumstance, fear or neglect. “The way I typically write songs is: Something has happened to me and I want to encapsulate it. I want to trap and package it, so I can pull it out of my body, and look at it to get some perspective on this event that has affected me,” says Shaw of the catharsis inherent in her song-writing process.
