Charles Bradley's forthcoming LP, Black Velvet is an extraordinary collection of 10 tracks making their LP debut. In addition to fan favorites like Charles covers of Nirvanas 'Stay Away', Neil Young's 'Heart Of Gold', and Rodriguez's 'Slip Away' - this album features 4 never-before-heard tracks from Producer Tommy 'TNT' Brenneck's vaults. As a one-time pressing for the super-fan we have a gorgeous black velvet wrapped box set that includes the following: 180g vinyl version of the standard LP, a bonus 12 45rpm EP with stripped down mixes of 4 CB classics, an exclusive slip-mat, 2 printed heavy-duty inner sleeves sporting a surreal painting of Charles and the interview in which he explains the origin of the painting, a 12x12 photo-book with extensive liner notes from Producer Tommy 'TNT', an exact replica of Charles' original Black Velvit business card, and last but certainly not least...a seeded DL Card (once you've retrieved your DL, you can plant the card and wildflowers will grow in memory of Charles).

Oh, how i miss thee, dear Screaming Eagle
Wooooooooah baby. CB delivers another slam dunk of funky soul. Everything about this set is made with love. Charles flying through the stars riding a horse is worth the money alone.

Cool collection
This is a cool collection of stuff. The slip mat looks awesome while spinning and the records sound great. The picture book is high quality. The plantable download card is a bonus as those things usually sit unused.

Solid package - a worthy goodbye
Musically not Bradley's most amazing work, but there are a few gems in between, and his voice is strong and beautiful. Well thought package with a few unusual surprises.
