D'ANGELO AND THE VANGUARD Black Messiah (UK/EU limited edition 12-track double album 2-LP pressed on classic black vinyl. Black Messiah marked the long-awaited return of D'Angelo, arriving fourteen years after Voodoo and reaffirming his position as one of modern soul's most inventive voices. Dense, analog, and intricately arranged, the album draws on 70s funk, gospel, jazz fusion, and quiet-storm soul while pushing into more experimental territory. Throughout the record, D'Angelo and The Vanguard create a soundworld that feels both lived-in and exploratory: the low-end grit of Ain't That Easy, the charged rhythmic snap of 1000 Deaths, the feather-light orchestrations on Really Love, and the shifting harmonic colours of Till It's Done. His collaborators - including Kendra Foster, Q-Tip, Questlove, Pino Palladino and James Gadson - bring a depth of musicianship that rewards repeated listening. This 2-LP edition presents the full album across four sides of vinyl that underpin its warmth and immediacy. Gatefold picture sleeve, factory sealed)
