Our Take

Well, well, well, look what we have here - a little gem from the one and only Mose Allison. That's right, folks, it's "I'm Not Talkin': The Song Stylings of Mose Allison 1957-1972." And let me tell you, this album is like a fine wine - it just gets better with age.

Allison's smooth vocals and killer piano skills are on full display here, making for a real toe-tapping, head-bobbing experience. From the jazzy vibes of "Your Mind is on Vacation" to the soulful crooning of "Parchman Farm," it's clear that Allison's talent knows no bounds.

But it's not just about the music - oh no. Allison's lyrics are as witty as ever, with clever wordplay and cheeky humour sprinkled throughout each track. Whether he's singing about the woes of love or the struggles of everyday life, Allison's lyrics hit the nail on the head every time.

So, do yourself a favour and give "I'm Not Talkin'" a spin. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. This album is a must-have for any music lover, and a true testament to the genius of Mose Allison. So sit back, relax, and let the smooth sounds of Mose take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers, Mose, you've done it again.
