No Time For Dreaming
Charles Bradley, Menahan Street Band
Recorded with the Menahan Street Band, these tracks carry the gritty warmth associated with Daptone Records. The production leans into punchy horn arrangements and analog textures to revisit a classic era.
Bradley finally moved past his years as a James Brown impersonator to offer a visceral, soul-baring performance. Each song documents his personal heartbreak through an urgent, honest delivery.
