Nathaniel Mayer Artist Snapshot:

Although Nathaniel Mayer only managed one national Top 40 hit ("Village of Love" in the spring of 1962), the young R&B singer maintained a devoted following in his hometown of Detroit through the 1960s, particularly for his later, more aggressive and funk-oriented singles. After decades in retirement, Mayer began playing live in 2002, often backed by young Detroit-area musicians, including members of the Dirtbombs, the Sights, and Outrageous Cherry. His 2004 album I JUST WANT TO BE HELD was followed by 2007's WHY DON'T YOU GIVE IT TO ME?, which also featured the Black Keys' Dan Auerbach.

Title Note

Personnel: Matthew Smith, Dan Auerbach (guitar); Troy Gregory (bass guitar); Dave Shettler (drums).

Obscure to all but the most avid soul music fans, Detroit native Nathaniel Mayer released his second comeback album in 2007. With the assistance of a young and hungry backing band that features members of Outrageous Cherry, the Dirtbombs, and the Black Keys, Mayer cooks with a bit more grease in the pan on WHY DON'T YOU GIVE IT TO ME than on his 2004 Fat Possum release, I JUST WANT TO BE HELD. Black Keys' guitarist Dan Auerbach lays down gritty, reverb-drenched riffs over a simple pulsing groove, letting Mayer unleash his haunting Howlin' Wolfe-style rasp. This album stands proudly alongside--and maybe slightly to the left of, given the presence of a slightly acid-tinged vibe--the finest classic soul comeback albums of the early 2000s.
