Alan Evans - Let It Ride

Funky solo work from Alan Evans of Soulive – a set of tunes that still really keeps the core funky sound of Soulive in place, but which seems to be going for more of a 70s feel overall! Evans sings and plays a bit of keyboards in addition to his usual strong work on drums – and he’s working in a core trio with bass and guitar, plus additional guest instrumentation on some tracks, in a range that includes flute, alto, percussion, and Fender Rhodes. There’s a stripped-down feel to the record that’s totally great – and which is a nice departure from some of the overstated work of Soulive in recent years – a mode that lets Evans get back to the grooves that inspired him, and lay them out perfectly!
