Capsule review: Arthur Alexander - Rainbow road (1972)

Fuck man, life stings. It gets worse as it pulls you along, right up to the yawning chasm of nothingness. Look, right there, nothing. Everywhere. At this point Arthur knows. A grown man's record.

Capsule review: Arthur Alexander - The Monument years (1965-1972) (2001)

Soul, oh hallowed genre. Long-lost treasures are a penny a dozen. These tracks sadly not monuments, just recorded for the Monument label. 'Glory road' and 'The migrant' glowing exceptions.
