Although Aaron Neville is often compared to singer Sam Cooke in terms of
sheer vocal refinement, he has a voice and style uniquely his own.
He is well known as part of the New Orleans sound of the Neville Brothers.
Yet, aside from the 1967 number one R&B hit "Tell It Like It Is," few
have heard his incredible early solo recordings.
Many of the first recordings of Neville, in the early and mid-'60s,
were arranged, produced, and often written by the brilliant Allen Toussaint
— another talent only later being really appreciated. Most of these
sides were cut for the Minit and, later, Parlo labels. Songs like "She
Took You for a Ride" and "You Think You're So Smart" on Parlo are
masterpieces. While his more recent work, including that with Linda
Ronstadt, makes for pleasant listening, it lacks the sheer persuasion of
his early songs. Neville has re-recorded his early work often, and it
is important to hear the originals. The early sides are just waiting
to be heard.
Neville has ventured more into other waters besides R&B. 1993's The
Grand Tour included a remake of a George Jones song that got Neville a
little country attention, and he announced plans in 1994 to do a
complete country album. He was also one of several R&B artists who
teamed with country stars for the Rhythm Country and Blues session.
Neville was paired with Trisha Yearwood, and the duo also performed
together in a benefit concert for the LP held in Los Angeles in April
1994. The LP made history by debuting in the Top Ten on the pop, R&B,
and country charts.
