Review

Q (Magazine) (p.140) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[H]e's fired up by youthful abandon, whooping and hollering from the boisterous 'Stake Your Claim' to the pleading ballad '(Am I Just) Fooling Myself.'"
Mojo (Publisher) (p.72) - Ranked #15 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2008" -- "Reed delivered this high-octane soul set with authenticity and joy."
Record Collector (magazine) (p.92) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[The album] stirs up rafter-raising gospel spirit with down-home dirt and spit..."

Title Note

The updated but reverent take on classic 1960s R&B provided by Eli "Paperboy" Reed & the True Loves is a blast from the past for a new generation. Though only in their 20s, Reed and his band (complete with a full horn section) crank up an energy on ROLL WITH YOU that summons the spirits of Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding, Sam & Dave, and other raw soul legends of a bygone era. Tunes like "Stake Your Claim" and "The Satisfier" are rendered with enough muscle to prove that this crew is no dusty museum piece. Instead, ROLL WITH YOU pulses and surges with gospel-tinged fervor, hard funk grooves, and get-up-and-dance urgency. Slower numbers like "Am I Wasting My Time" show they can tug the heartstrings, too.

TOWER.COM REVIEW

Album Review

Put on "Roll With You", the anticipated debut album from Boston-based soul band Eli "Paperboy" Reed & The True Loves, and chances are you'll immediately feel the urge to either dance or cry. "That first response to a record is the most important," says frontman Eli Reed. "If a record comes on and makes you want to dance right away, then you're doing a good job. If a record comes on and makes you want to cry right away, you're also doing a good job. I think this album does both." "Roll With You" is a vital, gospel-tinged mix of sweaty, up-tempo numbers and aching, lovelorn ballads that connect instantly thanks to the passion of this young performer and his equally young band. The True Loves may employ classic soul stylings but they make the music their own by performing it with the youthful abandon that only a group of seven talented guys in their '20s can muster.
