Multiply

Personnel include: Jamie Lidell (vocals, electric piano, Clavinet, drums); Andre Vida (saxophone); Jordan McLean (trumpet); Mocky (Fender Rhodes piano, synthesizer, bass guitar, percussion); Tony Buck, Daniel Raymond Gahn (drums).
There are few more unlikely choices for a soul hero than Jamie Lidell; he's British, Caucasian, and a former electronica experimentalist. Nevertheless, his solo debut, MULTIPLY, finds the young R&B maven alternately channeling Otis Redding, Prince, and Stevie Wonder, while adding a distinctly modern, admittedly MIDNITE VULTURES-era Beck-tinged flair. Whatever its provenance, MULTIPLY is one of the best R&B albums of the mid-2000s.
