Moments Worth Listening For
The rhythmic shift into a gentle reggae skank on the title track that bridges the gap between London soul and Caribbean roots.
The weathered, gravelly depth of the opening vocal line in 'When I Saw You' showing a vulnerability absent from his 80s hits.
The gospel-inflected choral backing that swells during the final chorus of 'We Gotta Find Love' creating a communal warmth.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
