Stewart Francke - Motor City Serenade [CD]

Detroit singer/songwriter Francke Stewart has long been a timekeeper of the city's soul and R&B heritage and has made a selection of self-released suave but under appreciated albums. This, his first British album release, shows that the White Stripes aren't the only delights the Motor City has to offer. Embracing the great musical heritage of Detroit, Stewart invited Tamla Motown's original session players the Funk Brothers to join him on two tracks and Detroit's original blue-eyed soulster Mitch Ryder on another.
