Description:
On his U.S. debut, blue-eyed soul man James Hunter proves to be a man of impeccable taste who has learned from his influences rather than simply imitating them. People Gonna Talk features 14 original tracks written and arranged by Hunter, who partnered with producer Liam Watson to create a wonderfully rich, classic soul sound. The album was recorded at Watson`s Toe Rag Studios in East London (also home to The White Stripes` `Elephant`), where vintage analog equipment captured the warmth of Hunter`s authentic and heartfelt sensibilities. Hunter, who has recorded with Van Morrison and was a part of Morrison`s Rhythm & Blues Revue, has been a mainstay of Britain`s R&B movement for the past two decades. (Rounder)
