Review by Bonnie Besserer

The Norfolk Soul Sound by Lenis Guess is a timeless classic that captures the essence of soul music in the 60s and 70s. The album is a compilation of some of the best tracks that Lenis Guess recorded during his time in Norfolk, Virginia, and it showcases his incredible talent as a singer and songwriter.

The album starts with the upbeat and funky "Why, Why, Why'd She Leave Me?" which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The track features Guess's signature raspy vocals, backed by a groovy horn section and a tight rhythm section. The album also includes some soulful ballads such as "Just Ask Me" and "Thank Goodness Gotta Good Woman."

One of the highlights of the album is the track "Working For My Baby," which features a catchy guitar riff and a driving beat that will make you want to dance. The song showcases Guess's ability to write catchy hooks and his talent as a performer.
