Willie And The Poor Boys - Revenue Man These Arms Of Mine
Review by Lisa Flading
Willie and The Poor Boys' album "Revenue Man These Arms Of Mine" is a soulful journey that takes the listener back to the golden age of R&B. The album is a tribute to the music of Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, and other legends of the genre. It features a mix of original songs and covers, all performed with passion and skill.
The album opens with the title track, "Revenue Man These Arms Of Mine," a slow-burning ballad that showcases lead singer Willie's powerful vocals. The band then picks up the pace with the funky "Bring It On Home To Me" and the upbeat "Shake A Tailfeather."
Throughout the album, the band's musicianship is on full display, with tight rhythms, soulful horns, and blistering guitar solos. The standout track is the cover of Otis Redding's "I've Been Loving You Too Long," which is given a fresh interpretation by Willie's emotive vocals and the band's tight arrangements.
