I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Good Soul, from Charles Tiner, and it's a solid mix or soul, rock and blues. Opening with Be A Man, Charles Tiner on keys and John Virgin develop the intro. Tiner with rich lead vocal leads the way and fluid guitar riffs by Virgin backed by Jamahi Patterson on drums and Charles Fox on bass for a deluxe opener. Easy blues, Blue Moon really showcases Tiner's soulful vocal work joined by Regina Stewart-Byrd and strong guitar lead by Travis Aldridge. Very cool. Theo Fisher lays in some real nice sax work on Peace By The River, a powerful vocal track featuring Tiner really digging in on enveloping keys. Solid radio track. R&B track, She Made A Move On Me is one of my favorite tracks on the release with a lightly funky rhythm by Tiner on keys, Virgin on guitar and William Bryant on bass. A strong radio track is Don't Be A Fool Too Long with Tiner on lead vocal and keys, backing vocals by Johnetta Jay Williams and Conrad Lee on lead, rhythm and bass guitar. Very nice. Wrapping the release is Put Your Money On Me, an easy shuffle pairing Tiner's vocal and keys with Chris Camp on harmonica, Fox on bass and backing vocals by Sandra Chappel, and Stewart-Byrd. Very nice closer.
