Singer/songwriter John Reid who gained wider acclaim for his work with dance act Nightcrawlers (best known for the global hit ‘Push The Feeling On’) delivers his debut album in the form of ‘Nightcrawlers Soul Sessions’, a 13 track soulful groove set that has a slick, polished sound that will appeal to fans of the likes of boogie and 2-step from the past and present. ‘All Night Long’ is driven by a rolling bass ala Breakwater/Atlantic Starr, the popping rhythms of ‘If It’s Love You Want’ and the sweet stepper ‘You And Me Against The World’ are highlights while ‘I Need Your Love’ sounds like every great element of early 80s modern soul rolled into one track! ‘Love Comes Around’ is a sumptuous beat ballad, ‘Watchin You, Watchin Me’ again sounds like some canned Con-Funk-Shun/Mass Production soulful dancer while the Soul Reflex version of ‘Push The Feeling On’ is also a winner. Highly recommended contemporary grooves that draw from a deep retro well.
