York Bros - Hamtramck Mama Highland Park Girl
Review by George Root
York Bros.' Hamtramck Mama Highland Park Girl is a delightful album that captures the essence of Motown music with its upbeat and soulful tracks. The album features twelve songs, each with its unique sound and style, showcasing the duo's versatility and musical prowess.
The opening track, "Hamtramck Mama," sets the tone for the album with its catchy rhythm and lyrics about a woman who knows how to have a good time. The album's title track, "Highland Park Girl," is a beautiful ballad that showcases the brothers' vocal harmonies and ability to write heartfelt lyrics.
Other standout tracks include "Detroit Blues," a bluesy number with a gritty guitar riff, and "Motor City," a funky tribute to the city that birthed Motown. The album also features a cover of The Temptations' classic hit "My Girl," which York Bros. infuse with their unique style and energy.
