PAPIK & THE SOULTREND ORCHESTRA “Now Imagine” CD
★Supervision and commentary: Kanazawa Toshikazu (Light Mellow)
The third album by the Soul Trend Orchestra, a soul project by Italian producer Nerio "Papic" Poggi! An explosion of Papic's talent, taking the best parts of 70s and 80s soul!
"The latest work by Italian producer/songwriter/keyboardist Nerio "Papic" Poggi, who cuts modern music in various styles regardless of genre and simultaneously delivers it with outstanding taste, is his third collaboration with The Soultrend Orchestra, a mellow groove-oriented jazz-funk project. The crossover sound with a late 70's feel sounds fresher than ever right now." -- Kanazawa Toshikazu
From the album opener that sounds just like Roy Ayers to the closer's cover of Kool & the Gang's "Summer Madness," the album is well-crafted with a hint of acid jazz! The cover of Sister Sledge's "Lost in Music" is also excellent.
