Danny Toeman offers up a slick excursion into burning soul, that combines the musical dexterity of funk with all its dance-friendly rhythms and sense of urgency too.

This vintage slice of soul has a catchy chorus too, propelled by James Jameson like bass, bolstered by a groove set in granite and some stirring string and horn arrangements that are to die for.

Toeman, who I shall christen the 'Soul Ranger’, sings his heart out
and it flows sweetly and with a lush sense of historic sophistication. This gem really hits the sweet spot perfectly. Summer vibes for the summer tribes.The B side 'Feel My Soul' is an emotive song too and the perfect vehicle for Toeman's soaring vocals.
