Charles Bradley "The World"(is going up in flames) From his DEBUT Album




This give me hope that I can make this music thing happen as long as I keep working. hahaha

Found this at rcrdlbl.com - This is a Debut record from a 62 Year Old & its Funky, sad and Just Fresh all at the same time. Here's how rcrdlbl described it;

Charles Bradley is 62 years old, and No Time For Dreaming, out Tuesday on Daptone, is his debut album. Unbelievable that it's taken this long, because Bradley is an incredible singer, with a voice as warm, fragile, and brittle as fallen leaves. He belts his vocals, but firmly within their limitations, which prevent him from delving into the sonorous theatrics that blemish some contemporary R&B singers. On "The World (Is Going Up In Flames)," the music, provided by the Menahan Street Band, is pure Daptone vintage, chalky guitars scraping against asphalt drums and a swinging, melancholic piano riff underpinning boiling horns. As can be extracted from the title, the subject matter is apocalyptic, but it's not preachy or didactic. Instead, it's an aged man sweetly disconcerted by a chaotic world, with beautifully funky music lifting otherwise dour spirits.
