His new album, Minute By Minute, is with The James Hunter Six, but some lucky WFUV members and I were treated to a few of the songs solo when James stopped by Studio A with just his guitar in tow. He also performed an FUV favorite from his 2006 U.S. debut, the title track of People Gonna Talk.
Here we have some great, throwback style Prince. He kills it with some strong guitar and hands-off sounding production. Prince is the ultimate alternative pop star and here he cements that position.
James combines jazz and hip hop in a totally relaxed way. He makes everything sound smooth, so obviously it’s incredibly hard to dislike this new record.
