Album Review: Curtis Harding - Soul Power

A quick joyride around the corners of YouTube and Google yield suggestive results of Curtis Harding, that he was a renaissance man, deeply-seated and preoccupied in the works and stylistic nuances of another Curtis (yes, Mayfield).

Yet, while that’s the case, Harding’s Soul Power brings so much more to the table. What Harding does with his debut album is no small thing: speaking to a whole new generation, channelling more than half a century’s worth of material, and doing it very well.
