Please Love Me - Liam Bailey
from the single Please Love Me (2012)
I enjoy putting together eclectic mixes of music. I like to cut across several sub-genres and find the threads that tie great songs together. Whenever I finish a new mix, I invite my funky friends over for a good listen.
As a result, I am always on the lookout for good tunes that cross genres. Please Love Me is one of those songs.
Liam Bailey is a British musician who creates a fresh musical vibe by mixing elements of R&B and Soul with a hint of early Jamaican ska. I find the sound to be a hip London vibe that I quite like. Last year, he released the single Please Love Me in the United States on Truth and Soul Records, yet another Brooklyn-based indie music label that continually puts out great music.
This song hooks me from the introduction. The lead guitar picks a catchy, vintage guitar riff over a tight country shuffle. A reggae rhythm guitar track enters along with the mellifluous falsetto of Liam Bailey. This is topped off by simple harmonies and an orchestration that gives it an old-school R&B flavor. This song sits at the intersection of several sounds I really dig. Check it out.
