Label: Eclecto Groove

Genre: Blues, Funk, Soul

Comments: The Soul of John Black is John "JB" Bigham who has written songs for Miles Davis, and played on session with Eminem, Dr. Dre, and Bruce Hornsby. With an all-star set of musicians backing him, Bigmham blends soul, gospel, funk and hip-hop into a fresh sounding blues.

"To say that Bigham is heir to multiple traditions is a major understatement.... he seamlessly merges influences and eras, and the results can be heard on his fine new album 'Black John.' ... The groove is indeed, the thing. It's relentless... what matters is the soul and the funk, and Bigham brings it on every track. He's a fine singer, too, throwing in godfather of soul grunts and gospel melismas and pleading sexually-charged asides that are worthy of Al Green."
