Why doesn't anyone mention Rev. Green's children or his first wife, who can really sing and was a compliment to her former husband while they sang and recorded together

what's the deal w/the arthur baker/fine young cannibals 93 record "don't look back"? trad soul? electronic? house? good?

Don't Look Back is terrific. On the whole it is very trad, but with just enough 90s touches to avoid sounding like a pure nostalgia trip. One song in particular, "Waiting on You," fascinates me because it's got a harsh, spiky sound and an almost angry Green vocal that's pretty fabulous and nearly unique in the Green canon. The album drags a bit in the second half, but it rebounds nicely at the end with the title track and the jaunty "Love in Motion." I think it was by far his best studio album since Truth N Time, and better than his trio of secular 'comeback' albums from the last decade.
