Monday Michiru – Don’t Disturb This Groove LP (RSD 2024) – Grand Gallery Japan
A great one from Monday Michiru – sweet, soulful, and totally right on the money! The set’s almost a return to the warm soul territory that first won us over in Monday’s work from the 90s – as she takes on a whole host of older American soul tunes by Stevie Wonder, Teena Marie, and others – sung with a wonderfully mature vocal approach, and set to jazzy backings that really help change things up – and make the record way more than just a simple set of cover versions! There’s a great blend here – the instrumental depth that Monday’s shown in recent recordings, and the straightforward soul of the early years – all handled with just the right production balance to make it come off perfectly. Titles include “Best Of My Love”, “Um Amigo”, “I Can’t Help It”, “Ooh La La La”, “Don’t Disturb This Groove”, “You Are The Universe”, and “As” (review by www.dustugroove.com).
