Reggie P 

Album Discography

*** 1/2 P's last full length, "Why Me?", is still selling well after 2 1/2 years- especially in his habitat Louisiana. Without much hype or promotion P has managed to climb up the southern soul mountain via a couple regional hits and word-of-mouth about his soulful vocals. Album number 4 "Your Love Is A Bad Habit" may only have seven actual songs (plus 1 remix and a glorified intro, "Witness") but most deliver, staring with the buoyant "I've Got That Feeling";  a serious nod to Sir Charles Jones and a surefire hit. Better though is the bluesy title cut, an emotional ballad with an impassioned vocal. The cut appears in two versions- one without a rhythm section and one with. Perhaps the former packs a harder punch. Pure Bobby "Blue" Bland if you ask me. The downhome Blues "Motel 2" meanwhile tips it's hat to ZZ Hill

The cat can sing a soulful ballad too evidenced by the Lenny Williams-like slowies "No More Tears" and "Unforgettable Dreams". The former has a particular strong refrain. Here's to hoping for more songs and a full band behind next time.
