Music reviews of Music Fan First
Music Review: 4.5 stars...One of the best male soul artists I've ever heard...
Rating: 4 Stars
...and I've listened to a hell of a lot of records!
I had the pleasure of seeing Erro live not too long ago at the Time Lounge in Norfolk, VA. He performed as part of the weekly "Fuzzy Wednesdays", which is held by the local The Fuzz Band. (Fuzz Band member Nakia Madry informed me that E.R. wrote some songs for the band's album). He turned the house out! Excellent performance. I also had the added bonus of speaking with him at the end of the night, snapping a picture with him and having him autograph a copy of Music Fan First for me. Not only is Erro a great artist but he's a great guy as well.
When Eric says he is a music fan first, he's not lying! MMF ranks one as his strongest works from an extremely strong career (one that's been completely independent, by the way). Eleven of the album's seventeen-song program are killer. "The Newness", "The Hunger", the brilliant "Tale of Two", "Borrow You", "Dealing" (featuring the beautiful, deep honey-brown vocals of Lalah Hathaway), "Still", "How She Could She Do It", "Further" (featuring T3 from Slum Village), "Howard Girls" (although I could have done without the fellas 'testifying' at the end), "Weekend Getaway", and the hypnotic "She" would have made a perfect album; it would have made for a soul album that no one in 2009 (or any recent year) could have touched. The additional of the six other tracks cloud MMF and keep it from earning a complete five stars. While none of them are terrible, they don't hold the same magic that the aforementioned eleven do. Yet the eleven highlights are so strong that MMF remains a must-buy for anybody who craves music that is soulful and original.
MMF is definitely grown-folks music. This ain't a milk mustache, bird-chested, young boy "boyfriend #2-birthday-sex-rockin'-that-thang-I-invented-sex" payola urban radio mainstream R&B party. Hence why someone as brilliant and skilled as Erro isn't played on Clear Channel radio. Not to sound arrogant but Erro and most of MMF is too good for the mainstream. It would be too much for that segment of the listening population to handle.
I wish Eric continued success. I definitely suggest going to see him in concert. His live show takes his already-excellent recordings to another level! The man is a beast!
