I caught an interview on NPR yesterday (listen to this first) with Ryan Shaw.
He's a 26-year old kid that has an album that sounds like it could have come out of Memphis or Detroit in '68. I was intrigued.
I just happened to be around the corner from Best Buy; ran in and picked up the CD, This is Ryan Shaw, and have been listening to it all day.
I'm a fool for a groove, anyway. This one has some great production, plus, the guy can really sing. You'll hear a couple of his originals on his Web site, but he also does some exemplary covers, my favorite Jackie Wilson's I'll Be Satisfied and Wilson Pickett's I Found a Love (you'll be able to hear these as long as NPR has them archived) .
Gio, I'm going to go out on a limb (about three inches) and say you're gonna want to go out and buy this one.
You are what you listen to.

You had me at "groove."
I've already put in a friend request at MySpace and bookmarked his website and the NPR page. And he's touring with Joss Stone! Huthh! Good God! One to watch, for sure.
