Our Take

Ah, Neal Francis, the man who brought us the funky, soulful vibes of "Changes", has graced us with a collection of demos that give us a glimpse into his creative process. This album, aptly titled "Changes (Demos)", is a treasure trove of raw, unfiltered talent that showcases Francis' knack for blending retro sounds with a modern twist.

The stripped-down versions of these tracks allow Francis' voice to shine through, with each note dripping in pure emotion. From the soulful grooves of "Alameda Apartments" to the infectious hooks of "How Have I Lived", Francis proves that he doesn't need all the bells and whistles to make a killer track.

One of the standout moments on the album is the demo version of "She's Real", which oozes with old-school charm and a touch of melancholy. Francis' vocals are nothing short of mesmerising, drawing you in with every word he sings.

While some may argue that demos lack the polish of a fully produced album, "Changes (Demos)" proves that sometimes less is more. Francis' raw talent and authenticity shine through on every track, making this a must-listen for any music lover.

So, grab a glass of wine, dim the lights, and let Neal Francis transport you to a world where soul and funk reign supreme. Trust us, you won't regret it.
