Harlem's Carlton Jumel Smith has been fronting bands and making records for the better part of 40 years. Whether singing house and/or techno under a stage name (Napoleon Soul-O), fronting the funky rock band the Thrill Cycle, subbing for James Brown (whom he played in Barry Levinson's 1999 film Liberty Heights) and Ray Charles, playing clubs in New York and Europe, or cutting his own independent records, Smith has done it all. 1634 Lexington Avenue is his debut long-player for Finland's premier indie soul label, Timmion, and his first full-length since 2008  . 1634 Lexington Avenue is the album Smith through his wandering and woodshedding has been promising for decades now. It is retro to be sure, but free of artifice or false appropriation. He is personally invested in these songs and it shows.

Fast-rising New York soul singer Carlton Jumel Smith continues his successful partnership with Timmion house band Cold Diamond & Mink via a debut album that sounds like it could have been recorded in the early 1970s rather than 2019. Smith's lyrics and effortlessly soulful vocal delivery take centre stage throughout, though it's the faithfully fuzzy grooves, punchy horn lines and languid, delay-laden guitar motifs provided by his storied backing band that make the album a real winner.

Ultimately, though, Carlton Jumel Smith's album will probably remind people to pull out their old copies of Al Green's Greatest Hits, Curtis Mayfield's Superfly, and Motown late 1960s/early 1970s compilations.

Carlton Jumel Smith will release a hard-hitting debut album in May and the record release show will be held in June at G Livelab. 1634 Lexington Ave" is an album of contemporary soul gold. The material mined here is none other than the vintage groove troves of classic 1970's r&b, something the Cold Diamond & Mink production crew brews up effortlessly. The songwriting and expression by Carlton carry strong echoes of Curtom productions, Memphis soul and naturally Motown.
