Michelle Gayle - Sweetness (Radio Mix)

Link

Michelle Gayle had some success in the UK and Europe in the mid to late 90's, with a pretty solid blend of R&B pop.

She only put out 3 albums, with her 1994 debut having the most success by a distance, this being her second single.

Liked it a lot more than I expected to be honest.

Next up, the single version of

Link

Overall, it’s a phenomenal track but to be honest the single version only touches the surface of a calssic

Is it heavy metal? Not quite but there are elements of metal in here. Is it Psych? Most definitely. There’s also a big chunk of the blues in here.

A great jam of a track when played in it's entirety.

Upfront thoughts: this is Rod's best album. It's his coolest album. It's also pretty much a Faces album. The entire band is here, whether credited or not. The guest list is solid. Only 3 Stewart originals here, but they are all great. He still had great taste in covers at this time (something that would disappear not long after this): he covers Dylan, Tim Hardin and an old Elvis hit. "(I Know) I'm Losing You" is an old Temptations hit: here, it's a full Faces track.

It's hard to believe that just 5 years later, Rod became the poster child for the uncool. His song choices got weird, his hair got weirder, and his sound closely followed everything mainstream. By 1978, everything that was cool about Rod was gone. But this album will always be truly great.

Thanks Rom. I was really pleased when this came up as the suggested album at the group yesterday. Like you, this is my favourite Rod album so looking forward to jumping back into the album and looking at it with fresh eyes, track by track.
