R & B

 

Mario DePriest


with
its
straightforward
melody lines
and
its
addiction
to
ostinato
 sorrowing pleas  
of
“Come Back Baby Come Back”

a
steady tempo
of
funk
tethered
to
the
periphery
of
misery
 
a
deep-voiced
songster
with
boisterous shouts
scatting
simulating
trumpet choruses
flawlessly
to
an
energetic
pulsing
of the
blues
