CD Single Review:

“Trouble”
Willie Cleveland
2006
(662) 455-9653

Greenwood, Mississippi’s Willie Cleveland, who incidentally bears a striking resemblance to a certain square-jawed gospel music legend whose surname he shares, waxes retro on “Trouble.” The single is an alchemy of 80s arrangement and 70s beat that will please southern radio listeners and leave gospel funk collectors thinking they’ve stumbled on long-forgotten vinyl.
