Taken from the critically acclaimed LP Big Inner (due for release in Australia in late February), Big Love is a soulful, horn-peppered funk rock jam; an almost-formless tune that finds the lead player lost in the flowering tropical jungle of instrumentation, a warm tumbling river of bluesy psychedelia that has earned him comparisons to Bill Withers and The Band. Matthew E. White is the distant echo of these artists, mixed with a hefty dose of Curtis Mayfield and squeezed out through a hash pipe.
