HONEST LEE: Sam Cooke Tribute EP (2014)

Bring It On Home To Me Sam Cooke Honest Lee[RATING: 5] Sterling work of the Gamm edits variety here as Washington DC-based Honest Lee reworks a pair of Sam Cooke-related cuts. First up is an understated disco rerub of Eddie Floyd’s version of Cooke’s Bring It On Home just in time for the anniversary of the 1962 release of Cooke’s original on 8 May. So far so good but what comes next might roll your soul even more. Yes, as far as the monkey is concerned, this one’s all about the disco-funked-up edit of The Ovations cover of Cooke’s Shake. Which is precisely what your ass will be doing when you hear it.
(Out 8 May on Growroom Productions)
