As Soon As I Get Paid, the new album from Arnold McCuller is now available at As Soon As I Get Paid.
Many of you will recognise Arnold as the regular backing singer for Phil Collins and James Taylor, but that is only the tip of the iceberg. He has a handful of solo albums to his name, has featured on too many songs to bother counting, and even has a number of film credits to his name.
His website, ArnoldMcCuller.com, has this to say about his album.
Soon As I Get Paid was made possible by the selfless financial help of his fans and friends through a special campaign through the social media website Pledge Music. Fellow musicians such as Lyle Lovett even contributed generous financial donations to the production, making this a collaborative effort that has resulted in what is sure to be one of the most important Blues albums of the decade.
Here are a few other comments off his site.
“Arnold McCuller is what’s going on, that’s always been the case and it always will be” – James Taylor
"Arnold's value as a group singer has always obscured his power as a lead vocalist, even as he has stepped out and soloed with James Taylor's and Lyle Lovett's bands. This new CD - Soon As I Get Paid - shows the world what those of us lucky enough to catch his live solo shows have known for years... Arnold McCuller is a force of nature, and a singer of near extraterrestrial abilities." – Jackson Browne
“His voice is like a songbird” – Linda Ronstadt
“I’m used to hearing some great music, particularly country. This guy (Arnold) is the best I’ve ever heard!” – Vince Bruce
