It was done first and best by Washington's Basehead, but it gets an invigorating twist on \"G. Love and Special Sauce,\" the eponymous debut album from this Philadelphia trio.\n G. Love not only looks like Michael Stipe, but he has the same mealy-mouthed vocal delivery. If Stipe ever decided to record his first rap album with an unplugged blues trio, it'd probably sound a lot like \"G. Love and Special Sauce.\" Recorded live with no drum machines, samples or overdubs, the album creates a fresh, distinctive sound with its odd blend of lazy rapping and funky acoustic blues. Unfortunately, G. Love's absurdist observations on life aren't as funny as those by John S. Hall of King Missle, and the laid-back minimalism of the music wears thin after a while. Only \"Baby's Got Sauce,\" which boasts a pop hook and a valentine to a domineering woman, holds up on repeated listens. --Geoffrey Himes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 074645785127\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0074645785127\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45939468861474,"sku":"W9-7J58-9B7Z","price":3.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/51Lkja4LHiL.jpg?v=1783595016","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/fr\/products\/g-love-and-special-sauce-g-love-and-special-sauce-cd-used","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
