Billy Paul -- Going East ...
NEW LP
REISSUE
One of Billy Paul's greatest albums ever -- or perhaps the greatest!
The record is an amazing blend of soul, jazz, and a strident sense of spiritualism that's not only rare for Billy Paul -- but which makes the record sound different than any other Philly International LP!
Billy's way more than a soul singer here -- working in a mode that's very high-concept, reaching towards the sky to bring a new maturity to the music that pushes way past his other pop and soul recordings in the 70s. You can hear this best on the classic track "East", a swirling long groover that takes an extended funky soul jazz journey -- and other good cuts include "Jesus Boy (You Only Look Like A Man)", "Love Buddies", "I Wish It Were Yesterday", and a nice cover of "Compared To What".
