Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Every imaginable convention of the 21st-century R&B diva can found in the grooves of Sunshine Anderson's debut, Your Woman. It stretches itself in a dozen different moods, reeling you in from the first notes of her signature tune, "A Little Sunshine" and manages to be melancholic, laid-back, sensual and sexy all at once. Musically, this 18-track album captures the exuberance of Anderson's first name: lush arrangements, euphoric hooks and a soaring, swooping gospel soul voice. But listen closely and things aren't as sunny as they seem. From the great funk fuelled single, "Heard It All Before" to the dreamy slow-tempo swoon of "Last Night", Anderson tracks the highs and lows of love with enough depth to sate even the most soul-addled attention span. The production by Soullife's Mike City doesn't twang and lilt like Outkast or bob and weave like Timbaland, but his chilled out beats, tentative scratches and subtle flourishes make this more than "hip background music". Although Your Woman is a little too long, this timeless effort should sit comfortably with the retro classics of the 80s and the 90s as well as albums from the likes of Lucy Pearl and Lauryn Hill. Her superstar manager, Macy Gray should watch her back! --Reuben Dessay
Description
R&B diva Sunshine Anderson has carved out a niche all her own. While she has some of the roots-conscious feel of Macy Gray (a strong supporter of Anderson) and D'Angelo, she doesn't go for a retro-'70s sound. Conversely, Anderson surroundsher powerful, throaty voice with many of the trademarks of contemporary R&B production (drum loops, faux-analogue synthlines), but she's undeniably a cut above many of the generic-sounding new-schoolers who worship at the shrine of R. Kelly and the like. There's a conceptual thread linking the songs on YOUR WOMAN, but it's not exactly MOBY DICK. You won't need any footnotes to enjoy this album, just a passion for sharply executed, highly emotive R&B with one foot in tradition and one inclined determinedly towards the future.
