NATHANIEL RATELIFF & THE NIGHT SWEATS "nathaniel rateliff & the night sweats"
fourth album from Nat, but I had not heard of him until a few weeks ago...
this album is released on the "stax" label, and rightfully so IMO....
it contains all the elements of the label from the 1960s...
soul/r+b/blues...its all there....
sounds like Sam Cooke and Bobby 'blue' Bland throughout....
not surprising with Nat's major influences being Sam & Dave,Sam Cooke and Van Morrison.
all up a fantastic album on a first up listen...
it has soul, it has groove and its damn good fun also!
here's a couple of tracks from the album:
