Lordy, I'm a sucker for Deep Soul. You know the weepy, hollering gospel driven soul, which reaches through you and twists and pulls and pulls and twists on your heart till every last drop of feeling bad and blue, even if you have nothing feel bad about...spills over and drips down your face. Yeah...it is that feeling which Oscar nails! That said, Toney's "Precious Love" LP is a solid chin wiggling and tear jerking event, but...there's a song or two which crosses over into "classy pop". But please don't be afraid of strings, Toney is not given to schmaltzy "Warwick" pop/soul...oh, and there's even, at least, one Northern mover...thankfully, which gives me time between weepers to dance over to a fresh box of tissues. –Nipper
