Nu Soul Stories

Nu Soul Stories is the eagerly awaited follow-up to the award winning Nu Soul Stew by Angel Rissoff (Harlem Hit Parade, Boogie Down Bronx, I Want a Love I Can See, Jitterbop). Nu Soul Stories is graced by the presence of three Rock& Roll Hall of Famers: the amazing voice of Darlene Love is heard on the duet You've Lost That Loving Feeling. Joining Angel on their song You Better Run are two original members of the Young Rascals, Eddie Brigati and Gene Cornish. Gene's guitar work adds a fresh take on their classic tune. Phil Granito of the Duprees sings a duet with Angel on a song they wrote together called Every Man. Guitar legend John Tropea adds his immaculate groove to two songs, Uptown Horns and Cracked Ice founder and leader Crispin Cioe adds his own brand of saxophone excitement, once again Seth Glassman shares the producing and arranging, plays bass and has co-written several songs.
