about
In a world of algorithms, mix and fix landscape of pitch correction and endless editing options, sometimes it's just nice to do it 'for real'....very much in the footsteps of Sinatra, Dusty, Aretha, Ella etc as done 'back in the day'.
This is very much the ‘Masterlink' way; the artist - in this particular case UK vocal royalty, Jo Harman - meets the band, they talk through the basics of an arrangement and just press record. Everyone in the same space, no separation, no meddling, just playing in the moment, vibing off one another and inspiring each other to find the 'goosebump' moments. Which are well much in evidence on this version of 'Loving Arms' recorded and produced at Masterlink by bassist, bandleader and producer Stefan Redtenbacher and his crew of master musicians. Enjoy!
Blues vocalist Jo Harman and the RB Funkestra met for the first time for a Masterlink Sessions video-recording of 'Cloudy' by the AWB. A strong chemistry between this classy vocalist and the band resulted in creating a joint release EP 'Signature Soul'. This live-in-the-studio radio edit of 'Open Arms' is a great showcase. 'Do it for real' - is the underlying ethos of this UK vocal royalty meeting the world class studio musicians from the Funkestra AKA Masterlink Sessions house band.
lyrics
If you could see me now
The one who said that she'd rather roam
The one who said she'd rather be alone
If you could only see me now
If I could hold you now
Just for a moment, if I could really make you mine
Just for a while, turn back the hands of time
If I could only hold you now
I've been too long in the wind
Too long in the rain
Taking any comfort that I can
Looking back and longing for
The freedom of my chains
And lying in your loving arms again
If you could hear me now
Singing somewhere through the lonely nights
Dreaming of the arms that held me tight
If you could only hear me now
I've been too long in the wind
Too long in the rain
Taking any comfort that I can
Looking back and longing for
The freedom of my chains
And lying in your loving arms again
