Bobby Womack’s move to Columbia Records heralded a shift from the earthy deep Soul sensibility of his previous records to a slicker, more sophisticated approach in step with the changing sound of contemporary R&B.
The transition not only proves seamless, but in fact Home Is Where the Heart Is (1976) may very well be Womack’s most compelling LP in some time. Recorded in both Muscle Shoals and Los Angeles, its disparate parts fit together like a well-oiled machine.
Womack’s wonderfully gruff vocals adapt well to the warmth and elegance of songs like “How Long”, “Something for My Head” and “One More Chance on Love” and he performs with unprecedented passion and focus.
