***
It's amazing what a hit can do for
a career. Nathaniel
Kimble scored with a infectious
dancer called "I Can Bagg It Up" a few years back (also a hit for
Sheba Potts-Wright) and has proceeded to release countless carbon
copies of the track since then. None of them really clicked but he
lets us know "I'm Back"
for album number 4 and it's his most consistent record by far. The
first single, "Back In The Streets", is another one of those fast
booty wigglers similar to his past club jams "Bagg It Up", "Ride The
Brown Horse" & "Better Get Ready'. The disc has more dancers like
"Let's Party Y'all", "Shake Your Groove Thing", "Dancing Shoes",
"She's My Kind Of Girl" with better than average production for
programmed music. Credit goes to Jimmy Barnett & Eldridge Jenkins.
Kimble delivers a couple decent slow rollers with "You Are The One"
& "Gotta Move On". Like the Mystery Man, he's a very limited singer
only tolerable for about two or three tracks. I can only imagine
what a better singer would've made of this generally strong
material. In fact somebody should send Clarence Carter the track, "Gotta
Get You Back"!

**
For only having one certified hit ("I Can Bagg It Up") Nate has been able to
continue releasing albums and working the chittlin' circuit quite regularly.
Like his other sets you will like this new 10-song set if you like his past work
and/or his unremarkable singing voice. For the rest of us we might find a cut or
two that interests us. The first single, the lackluster "2 Step", isn't catching
on as I write. There's more slow jams than usual here. Being he's not a singer,
fairly well-arranged numbers like "Tell It" and the Tyrone Davis-inspired "Been
There" sound like songwriting demos.
