Search - Mighty Sam Mcclain :: One More Bridge to Cross

Worn out your Al Green records?

"This is a marvelous album that reminds you of classic soul, ala Al Green and the Memphis Stax sound, without sounding retro or dated. McClain has a commanding voice, writes great songs, and can assemble a fine band. "Mighty" is right."

Pure Blue-Soul at its finest!

"I see a W.C. Handy later this year for this new CD. Much better, more varied
(Soul with a big band sound, Funk and R&B too) than his last with Telarc,
"Sweet Dreams". The songs "cook" slowly, ooze Soul and grab you in bit by
bit, is what makes it stand out. This one is self produced and think this
made a huge difference in the liberty to be more creative in the studio and
with the music. 9 of the 13 tracks are already favorites. Simon Aguilar, KYNR Crazy Coyote Blues"
