"Adrian Younge Presents: The Delfonics....."
Mon Mar-04-13 09:39 PM by Warren Coolidge

  

          

I've been looking forward to this project for a while.... was familiar with Younge's work on Black Dynamite...so I figured this would be interesting..


but I honestly had no idea...

first of all I didn't realize that he and Delfonics lead singer William Hart were going to be recoring original songs for this project....with Younge's band...

William Hart is in his 80's.... I mean...I am honestly blown away by this album...

peep the NPR first look

didn't realize there was a video for stop and look

i respect what they were trying to do, but the singer from the delphonics is out of key on every damn track.
he sounds like a muppet or something.
and i fuck with the delphonics...

but you have to be a real REAL die hard delphonics fan to dig this or so "hip-hop" that out of key singing doesn't phase you.

i downloaded/deleted the album at least a month ago.
if not in december...

i mean he's 80.
i'm not faulting dude.
but he needed a vocal coach.
likewise for that shelved dam-funk/steve arrington project.
waay too many "off" notes for me.

Now I'm definitely buying this. I just bought tickets to the Ghostface/Adrian Younge show in Portland, too.
