Singer/songwriter John Korbel delivers some silky smooth and soulful originals here with a team of Chris West/horns, Joe Davidian/key, James DaSilva/g, Art Ward/b, Marcus Finnie and Skye Claire/voc. The mood gives hints of 70s John Klemmer, nice warm grooves as on the rich samba “Reality is Emotion” and the fluted “My Tattoo.” Korbel sounds comfortable and relaxed, gentle on your mind for the title track and poppy on “Last Year of Innocence.” Impressive ep; any trips to So Cal?
