...times! I hadn't heard of Sam Sparro until Black and Gold was on the radio a couple of weeks ago and I decided to find out more about him.
All the tracks on the album are brilliant. His voice and style seems to be a mixture of the Scissor Sisters, Prince and the Bee Gees. It's very easy to sing along to as he sings clearly (not like some singers where you can't understand a word they are singing!).

I will definately be looking out for more albums by Sam Sparro in the future, his voice is very smooth and sexy. Plus he doesn't take himself seriously at all - watch the video for Cottonmouth - it's hilarious. I recommend this album to everyone (although beware of a few swear words here and there).

Album Notes
This is the assured and confident self-titled debut from Australian born Sam Sparro. Having a diverse and international background (via Sydney to L.A. to London), Sam stands out from the usual crowd. With his mix of soul and electro-funk recalling influences from legends such as Stevie Wonder to contemporaries like Jamie Lidell and Seal, this is a deeply modern sensuous soul album. Includes the single 'Black & Gold'.
