Review by Vlad Ivanov

Soul Beautiful, the latest album by Hampton Taliaferro, is a soulful and uplifting collection of songs that showcase the artist's incredible vocal range and emotional depth. From the opening track "Love Will Find a Way" to the closing ballad "A Love So Strong," Taliaferro's voice is front and center, delivering lyrics that are both heartfelt and inspiring.

The album features a mix of original compositions and covers of classic soul and R&B songs, all of which are given a fresh and modern twist by Taliaferro's unique style. Standout tracks include "I Can't Make You Love Me," a hauntingly beautiful rendition of the Bonnie Raitt classic, and "Ain't No Sunshine," a soulful take on the Bill Withers hit.

Notes

Soul Beautiful is Hampton Taliaferro's first solo album - a kaleidoscopic, outside-the-box collection of moving grooving original songs which seamlessly blend classic sounds of the 70's with the alternative energy of the 80's and the grunge of the 90's. Hampton plays drums, acoustic rhythm guitar and sings lead vocals. He's joined on this musical journey by Medo Agus on electric guitar and Roxy on viola, violin, sax & vocals, with special appearances by Shelley Martin on flute, Chuck Dodson on electric keyboard, Levon Walkin playing acoustic slides & fills - plus a reunion with Common Children bassist Drew Powell.
