When I arrive in the office early, I often put on 'Heart'n Soul - The Experience' to give me that boost of positive energy to get going. Danny's Bag' has a housey feel with great vocals by Hannah Marvelly. The Jam' has very original instrumentation with electric mbira, bass and acoustic guitar playing in close harmony with subtle poly-rhythms. The spoken words are provided by Geoff Goodall, who comes across almost as a visionary. Time' is an atmospheric cross between Pink Floyd and Portishead with Pino Frumiento as the front man.
Soul come across live.
This is a fine CD and my only slight complaint is that the production may be a bit over-polished. If you want to listen to some good tunes and find out what Heart'n Soul is about, buy this one. One way to answer that question once and for all might be to turn up at the Beautiful Octopus Club. The Octopus is a club for people with learning disabilities run by people with learning difficulties. It also has a wicked atmoshere with PAs, performances from Mat Fraser and the Corali Dance Co, installations, massage, web area and computer games.
