lyrics

I fall back into the dream
And still feel blind
Low key still learning to see
Keep both hands up above your coffin
All smiles while the cities on fire
Their smokey ways
Sun fades people tossing the shade
Quick to be kneeling at the alter
You took the honey from the master
Fire in the valley
Come to California, LA
Out on the horizon
Colors hypnotize and fade, LA
Who’s truth to clouded with doubt
It gives me pause
I just can’t figure it out
The smoke sits thick on intuition
Slow drip slip fall into place
Helicopters call
Top down lay buried in sound
Soak in the moments where your heart does sing
Don’t let the reptiles take your wings
All of your money
Honey it’s the price you pay, LA
Driving for the chance of
Dancing for the plastic stage, LA
Out on the horizon
Colors hypnotize and fade, LA

UNTITLED (Rise)
by SAULT

supported by 10 fans who also own “Figure It Out”

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell

Moodymann creates innovative soul funky music with deep 70s inspiration. The vocals are simply outstanding. A step back in time, 50 years ago! Superb. jef37
