One quick look at the liner notes shows the positive effects that can come from commercial success: joining the Bedouin boys on this release is Money Mark--of Beastie Boys fame--on keyboards, Bad Brains' bassist (and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStreet Gospels\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e' producer) Darryl Jenifer, and vocalist Vernon Buckley of '70s reggae band The Maytones. You can feel the genuine love and appreciation for dub and reggae throughout \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStreet Gospels\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, not just via the guest players but also through frontman Jay Malinowski, with his gentle, raspy tones and easy-breezy phrasing. Mere moments into the CD, the very best elements of Bedouin come to light: \"Until We Burn in the Sun\" is a disc standout, a joyful, tropical melody that overflows with an English-Beat-meets-Police vibe. Catchy songs and lyrical positivity runs throughout the disc, from first single \"Walls Fall Down,\" to the Clash-like \"Gunships,\" to disc-closing crooner \"Hearts In the Night.\" \"Hush\"--an a cappella gospel-style number--is another high point, a showpiece for Malinowski's gorgeous harmonies and simple, memorable melodies. That, along with the soft-as-a-cloud \"12:59 Lullaby\" (first heard on a Grey's Anatomy episode), proves that the group has more than simple staying power, they appear to be evolving and growing into something well deserving of international attention. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e--Denise Sheppard\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books Prime","offers":[{"title":"Audio Cd, August 21, 2007","offer_id":45913018728639,"sku":"bbb2b1f2-fdd3-4159-9442-2114d9b42096","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0761\/7550\/7647\/files\/71627e378cf01737a504dc84acd35479.jpg?v=1785040642","url":"https:\/\/books-prime.com\/products\/street-gospels","provider":"Books Prime","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
