Maxwell - Til The Cops Come Knockin' (Uncut) 1996

Columbia Records 663179 5

Maxwell crept onto the scene in his own classic laid back manner. Looking like a retro 70's throwback, he unleashed the mighty Maxwell's Hang Suite album from whence the title track is taken, and in the coolest ever way, became an overnight legend. Anybody that likes soulful music knows about Maxwell.

The concept album kicked off with an intro track. An instrumental funky ass jam that (brought to my mind, Marvin Gaye) clocked in under three minutes. I wanted more, it was an excellent piece of mood music. The album features track after track of Quiet Storm boots knockin' joints, none of which disappoint, most of which deserve much praise but... I love that instrumental jam!

Imagine how happy I was when this CDS came out then. The Urban Theme (Unfaded), four minutes and fifty seconds of urban bliss. Yes, that is vinyl fizz you can hear and yes, this is a CD rip. I tol' you, the guy is a 70's throwback and his music reflects that, oh so well. Enjoy!
