Eclectic Soul is just that - Eclectic !!
author: BluesJack
Eclectic soul surprised me, it was just that, diversified blues. Sounds from Church to honkey tonk, acoustic guitar here, a piano dominated song there then heavy Hammond sounds that throw you back to the 70's all backed by solid vocals. If something in this CD doesn't make the hair stand up on you, you missed the spirit of Oscar Jordan all through this work. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

What took so long??
author: D.C.B.
About a year ago I purchased " Mr.Bad Luck". Recently I received " Eclectic Soul". What the Hell took me so long? Those who wait are destine to miss, a musical bliss. One of my favorite(s) on the c.d. is Ruination, (as Jimi H. would say- Have you ever been Experienced? ). To understand ,just do yourself a HUGE favor and get the c.d.Than you can ask, What took so long? aka. Thanks Oscar, for the signed copy...DAL

I was looking forward to getting this one and I was not dissapointed after listening to it a few times. I'm a little bit jaded in this genre but Oscar delivers the goods in a big way. In my opinion blues/ rock is all about the quality of the singer, I've seen and heard hundreds of records where the band kicks it but the vocals aren't quite up to par. This isn't the case with this CD. It's obvious from beginning to end that this is a first rate band that flows effortlessly from stank-ass, funky blues to Latin flavored Santana-esque grooves with nods to the classic soul stylings of the masters like Otis Redding and Al Green. The key element for guitar freaks is the sublte nod to the spirit of Hendrix which to me means soulful and toneful guitar playing that smolders, then burns and then just explodes.
If you are a fan of classic rock, blues and soul then this is a must have. Oscar Jordan is the real deal with a guitar in his hands but when he steps up to the mic he brings it big time. He is the ultimate one/two musical punch.
You don't know me but I say buy it now!
