 (4 Customer Reviews)
Anthony Hamilton is one of the leading lights of the neo-soul movement. And while it's easy to call his music retro given a vocal style that recalls Bill Wethers and a rootsy yet modern-sounding production aesthetic that is clearly indebted to Stevie Wonder, Hamilton is more a product of his own tireless vision than of any sort of old-school fetishism.
Although Hamilton tasted success a few times early in his career, he jumped from label to label and kept a side career as a writer and back-up singer. Hamilton has had a comfortable home with Jermaine Dupri's So So Def label since 2003, yet 2007's SOUTHERN COMFORT proves that creating deep, organic soul has been the singer's M.O. since day one, as this album is, remarkably, his second collection of older, previously unreleased material. That his vaults are this stacked speaks volumes to Hamilton's talent.Entertainment Weekly (p.74) - "It's a worthy set -- made that much sweeter by the critical and commercial success that Hamilton would soon capture." -- Grade: B Anthony Hamilton Southern Comfort Songs Southern Comfort Music Review Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)   I LOVE IT!!!

Purchase Southern Comfort CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Anthony Hamilton Comin' From Where I'm From CD (2003)
Southern Comfort
 $9.95   
COMIN' FROM WHERE I'M FROM was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album. "Comin' From Where I'm From" was nominated for Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance and for Best R&B Song.
Anthony Hamilton grew up in North Carolina, caught the eye of record companies, and released a major-label record in 1997, XTC, which was critically lauded, but mostly forgotten and quickly out-of-print. Following this setback, Hamilton hung around the music biz, working on his songwriting and background vocals, until his big break came in 2002, singing the hook for the Nappy Roots hit "Po' Folks."
The music on his second album, COMIN' FROM WHERE I'M FROM, transcends his rise-to-fame backstory. Hamilton is a soul singer in the truest sense of the phrase, a crooner with heart from the school of Curtis Mayfield, Bill Withers, and Teddy Pendergrass, as well as an intense songwriter on par with ...
| | Anthony Hamilton Soulife CD (2005)
Southern Comfort
$11.75
Despite a remarkably soulful voice somewhere between Teddy Pendergrass and Bill Withers, and a knack for penning breathtakingly original songs about love and life's misdirections, North Carolinian Anthony Hamilton spent almost a decade toiling in music's backlots. His critically hailed MCA debut, XTC, foretold the neo-soul movement, but came years before the genre's explosion in 1996. Seven years later, Hamilton finished his dues-paying and sold millions of records for Arista with the excellent COMIN' FROM WHERE I'M FROM.
In between, Hamilton landed at the independent Soulife Records. As evidenced by the recordings collected ...

Southern Comfort
$15.39
PROG IS NOT A FOUR LETTER WORD is an impressive collection compiled by Andy Votel. Reaching back to the several decades, Votel puts together a remarkable overview of the high-minded genre known as progressive rock.
Certainly this well-annotated compilation covering progressive rock from around the globe between 1969-1978 is both wide-ranging and obscure. The 15 tracks offer material from a dozen countries, representing not just the Western European nations that were most responsible for propagating the genre, but also some countries from which little progressive rock has widely circulated, including Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Turkey, Hungary, and Korea. Only Egg, the sole entry from England, is apt to be known to the average prog rock collector, and even Egg wasn't exactly a household name. As to whether Prog Is Not a Four Letter Word represents some of the best prog rock (or even best obscure prog rock) ever, that's more open to debate. Those who've never warmed to prog rock will find much of what's kept them at bay presented and accounted for in various degrees, including hard-to-hum melodies and a certain seriously cerebral artiness. Open-minded devotees of the approach, however, will find a lot of variety, including eerie, folky electronic spaciness, wiggly use of guitar and keyboard textures, echoes of cheesy organ psychedelia (in San Ui Lim's "Frustration," from Korea), the more standard prog rock churchy organ sound (Egg's "Fugue in D Minor"), dramatic classical- folk-influenced melodies (Bran's Welsh-language "Breuddwyd"), and gothic ethnic accents from Eastern and Central Europe. It's nothing if not eclectic, with touches of funk, hard rock, Indian music, jazz, and metal making their way into the mix at times as well. Jean-Claude Vannier's "Le Roi des Mouches" is a highlight if that kind of genre-blending ...
