I wonder how many Bel will DeGruppo ever receive, a time once beloved by the Norwegian Trve DeBaserz.
Let’s hope to collect a lot and bring them to the radio court of La Musica DeDentro.

"If All I Was Was Black".

It's pointless to spend more words describing an album whose title says it all.

Mavis Staples - If All I Was Was Black (ANTI-Records, November 17, 2017)

Surely one of those chapters among the releases of 2017 that must be recovered at all costs. Especially if you enjoy black music, of which Mavis Staples can undoubtedly be considered one of the greatest historical interpreters. Not to mention a prominent figure always at the forefront of the battle for civil rights, particularly for African Americans (she was a personal friend of Dr. King). Released last November and practically coinciding with her induction into the "Blues Hall Of Fame," "If All I Was Was Black" renews the partnership between Staples and Jeff Tweedy, the album's producer and virtually the author of all the songs. It must be said that this partnership is certainly fortunate, as Tweedy's writing has a certain "freshness" that has revitalized an artist born in 1939 who may have slipped a bit into obscurity but still has an incredible energy and always a fantastic voice. The album thus carries the strength of the great classics of blues and soul music, but the sound is certainly far from being labeled as "vintage." Similarly, it's hard to choose a particular track to describe its beauty. I must say this is one of those albums that are practically "perfect." All the songs are of extremely high quality. If I had to choose one, I'd name the title track. A typical and significant piece for Staples that – like the others – Tweedy tailors perfectly for her as if he were making her a suit. Kudos to him, but perhaps – who knows – in the end, writing for this tremendous interpreter might not be that difficult after all. In any case, excellent work. Five stars/five.

Scritti Politti - Absolute Have you seen the logo in the top right? MTV! A venerable band just for that one-of-a-kind debut, "Skank Bloc Bologna," which has continued to produce boundaryless music. I love their voice and how it blends into the reverb-heavy beats of the synths!
