{"product_id":"charles-bradley-changes","title":"Charles Bradley - Changes","description":"\u003cp\u003eCharles Bradley's Changes is soul music sung with every scar showing, a 2016 album that found the Screaming Eagle of Soul at his most moving.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis third album was produced by Thomas Brenneck, with the Menahan Street Band providing most of the backing and The Budos Band and the Gospel Queens lending a hand. Having found fame late in life after decades of hard work and hard luck, Bradley poured gratitude, heartbreak and faith into every performance, and you can hear all of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGod Bless America opens the album as an unexpected, heartfelt hymn, setting the tone for what follows. The title track reimagines Black Sabbath's Changes as a slow-burning soul ballad, his voice cracking with grief, while Good to Be Back Home struts with funky swagger and a real sense of relief.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrenneck's warm, vintage-minded production gives the songs the feel of a lost classic, with horns, organ and rich backing vocals framing Bradley's raw, pleading voice. Nothing is polished to a shine, and that is exactly the point: this is a record that sounds lived in, sweated over and deeply felt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe last album released in his lifetime before his death in 2017, Changes stands as a powerful final statement from one of modern soul's most beloved voices.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57287064813873,"sku":"823134004115","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Charles_Bradley-Changes_aeb6aed0-cdcb-4f40-ace5-d5d8d4ecd69a.jpg?v=1793728702","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/charles-bradley-changes","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
