As much as I like experimental and progressive music, sometimes I just want soul music, raw and straight from the heart. And that is exactly what the Now Time Delegation give us: raw soul, sweaty trashrock, and dirty blues. With members from the Gospel Swingers in its line-up, this band swings and grooves like hell, but the real force of this record is Lisa Kekaula's voice. She has a beautiful bluesy voice, and she really takes this music to a higher level. She sings over a foundation of 60s organs, off-key blues guitars, and a rhythm section tighter than hell. Think Jon Spencer starting a band with Curtis Mayfield. And from the latter Lisa Kekaula sings a cover: a stripped-to-the-bone version of 'Keep On Pushin''. Spectacular is too little a word. But the rest of the material is almost as good: Original songs like 'Hangin' Tree' go hand in hand with great cover versions of King Floyd's 'Handle Me with Care' or the Flirtations' 'Nothing But a Heartache'. This is real soul, and I can't imagine anyone feeling nothing when listening to this. Universal music.
