Seal - Love T.K.O (Teddy Pendergrass) x Lean On Me (Bill Withers)
Following the worldwide success of his 2008 cover album 'Soul', Seal has teamed up with producers Dave Foster & Trevor Horn to bring us the brilliant 'Soul 2'. His cover of Let's Stay Together by Al Green was the lead single, but it's the Teddy Pendergrass and Bill Withers reworks that have caught my attention after the first few listens. As he explains:
"In my twenty years on a journey in the music industry, two things remain constants, the voice and more importantly, the song. I continue to make music because of the chance that this day could indeed be the day I write another great song or have the opportunity to sing one. The songs on Soul 2 are a natural evolution in the arc of soul music from the songs on the first Soul album - and they are all-time classics."
A must have for any music lover. Out on November 21st - pre-order HERE.
