Each of the 11 tracks of “Beautiful Wasteland” takes you on an introspective journey as Jordan shares lines from his own journals of love, loss, grief, and solidarity. Frye’s songwriting belongs to a tradition of storytelling-rich lyricists like Sufjan Stevens, but is infused with the energy of indie-alt pop experimenters like Shawn Mendes or Ed Sheeran. Channeling the essence of James Taylor, the anthemic heights of Brandon Flowers, and nostalgic sounds of Snow Patrol or Keane, this album is sure to be your soundtrack of the year.

Avaialable from Mr Bongo on vinyl LP and CD https://www.mrbongo.com/products/the-sylvers-ii-vinyl-lp-cdThis is a masterpiece. And we mean it. Beautiful, golden-era soul written by Leon Sylvers III, produced by Jerry Butler and Keg Johnson.

The Sylvers were a family from Los Angeles who were very successful during the 70’s and into the early 80’s, with chart hits – deep into pop-disco territory by then! – including ‘Boogie Fever’, ‘Hot Line’ and ‘High School Dance’.

This is the groups second album, from 1973, and is one of their strongest. Opening with the awesome mid-tempo ‘We Can Make It If We Try’ the record moves through funk, boogie and deep soul moods, finishing on a hazy, acapella version of The Beatles ‘Yesterday’.

The Sylvers always provide a goldmine of samples. This album has been flipped by Madlib (for MF DOOM), Homeboy Sandman, 50 Cent, Ghostface Killah, Black Milk, Roc Marciano, David Banner & 9th Wonder and more.
