Wasn't there a thread about him on the old site? Well, here we go again. I wanted to explore some of Robert Palmer's work in the '70s. I figured that if Genesis and the J. Geils Band had albums in the '70s that not many people paid attention to, but are now considered classics, what about Robert Palmer? I found a used copy of Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley on cd at Second Spin, and decided to snap it up cause it was used and cheap. I do not regret my purchase. This white boy could sure do funk and soul like the greats. Since this is a prog site, this cd does have some proggy bits:the first three songs form a suite and the last song(Through It All There's You) is twelve minutes long. What does everyone at PE think of the late, great Mr. Palmer? Should I explore his work further? If so, where should I go next?
