User:Vitamin82/Issues of Life: Features and Remixes

Issues of Life: Features and Remixes is the compilation album by American jazz musician and singer Gregory Porter.

Issues of Life: Features and Remixes came out after Grammy-winning Liquid Spirit (2013). Album brings together disparate tracks recorded prior to signing contract with Blue Note Records and "displays much of what has made him such a jazz superstar".

Reception
Jazz critic John Fordham from The Guardian highlighted a "muscular, horn-heavy" version of Bobby Timmons’ "Moanin’", a "soulful and coolly bass-walking" "Be My Monster Love" and "the smokily wondering immigant-song" "Hope Is a Thing with Feathers", recorded with "post-Coltrane tenor-sax supremo" David Murray.

Jazz critic Mike Hobart from Financial Times called Issues of Life: Features and Remixes a "terrific introduction to the Porter aesthetic".
