One of journeyman vocalist/guitarist Spencer Davis's stronger post-1960's efforts, SO FAR showcases the soulful Englishman at the top of his game, delivering a diverse batch of rootsy songs backed by a crack touring band. From the New Orleans-ish R&B piano workout of "I Can't Stand Still" to the folksy Donovan-leanings of "Golden Eagle" and Springsteen-esque straight-up soul party grooves of the title track and "Promises," SO FAR is full of spirited, lean `n' mean performances that are even more impressive considering they come from a guy who in 2008 had been touring and recording non-stop for the better part of five decades.
Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- While the lyrics are necessarily subjective, they are buoyed by proficient, even inspired, performances and memorable music.
