Omar is a national treasure, one of the most unique and original UK Soul artists of all time. ‘The Man’ features 12 new self penned songs and a beautiful laid back re-cut of his big hit ‘There’s Nothing Like This’ ft Pino Palladino on Spanish Guitar and Bass. ‘Simplify’, ‘The Man’, ‘Treat You’ (ft Caron Wheeler), and ‘I Can Listen’ are excellent tracks utilising Omar’s characteristic rhythm patterns. The uplifting Samba influenced ‘Ordinary Day’ is a real highlight. Jim Hunt. Dom Glover and Nichol Thompson provide some nice background horns on several tracks. This album has a more natural feeling throughout and will be a strong contender for Soul album of the year.
