The groove is deep on cuts like \u201cRunnin&#8217; Thru,\u201d and Gray displays his impressive pipes without showboating. He&#8217;s also an estimable guitarist with a keen sense of how to evoke a &#8217;70s vibe that&#8217;s equal parts funky and rocking, and he does so without coming off overly retro. Uptempo tracks alternate with the sultry slow burn of cuts like \u201cChasing a Ghost.\u201d If <strong>Mountain<\/strong> or <strong>Cactus<\/strong> had made music for blaxploitation films, they might&#8217;ve sounded like Wild Adriatic. Ably backed up on three of <i>Feel<\/i>&#8216;s 11 tracks by a blistering horn section, Wild Adriatic churns out dance floor classics for the modern age.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>File next to: The Heavy, The New Mastersounds, Sharon Jones &amp; the Dap-Kings This NYC-based trio describes its music as \u201cpower soul,\u201d and for once a genre label is dead-on [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12552,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[49,62,65,69],"tags":[3023],"class_list":["post-12524","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-release","category-rawk","category-review","category-soul","tag-wild-adriatic","cat-49-id","cat-62-id","cat-65-id","cat-69-id","has_thumb"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12524","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12524"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12524\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12553,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12524\/revisions\/12553"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12552"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12524"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12524"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12524"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
