Hanx, Michele.
Just listening to Ali's Running Free album on Spotify. First time I've heard any of his solo stuff.
It ain't great to be honest. Lacks the depth and variety the UBs bring to their albums. The choice of guest singers is interesting and shows the guy's got some good contacts, but the musical backup is a bit bland - especially the horns. Nowt wrong with session musicians, of course - what a dream job, playing music for a living and working with all sorts of people - but it just seems 'phoned-in' in places. Gotta Getaway's the standout but I can't imagine me buying it, not when there's so much great music out there.
