‘G. Love & Special Sauce’
Okeh/Epic – 1994
*G. Love & Special Sauce – “Shooting Hoops” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h05cUhQPOec // https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._Love_and_Special_Sauce_(album) // I got this CD from Columbia House my senior year of HS! The album was certified Gold after selling 500,000 copies. It contains the song “Cold Beverage”, which became a college-radio staple, as well as “Baby’s Got Sauce”, which Seattle’s KEXP-FM 90.3 called the song of the year. The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote that G. Love’s “carefree playing refracts the blues into a slew of unlikely colors, and his rapping, a style he calls ‘ragmop’,is one of the most significant updates of blues phrasing since British rockers took a shine to the sound in the mid-’60s.” The album was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.*
