Snarky Puppy keyboardist Cory Henry has stripped everything back to just a Hammond B-3 organ with a peppering of percussion and a sprinkling of vocals on his ‘The Revival’ set. The dextrous ‘Lord’ Prayer’ kicks off this album that has a righteous, soaring feel on many of the tracks here. Performed live in front of an audience at Brooklyn’s Greater Temple of Praise the gospel vibe is well in evidence on tracks like the playful ‘He Has Made Me Glad’, the gospel vamping of ‘Old Rugged Cross’ (with vocals from Bishop Jeffrey White) and full on celebratory ‘I Want To be Ready’. ‘That Is Why I’m Happy’ thunders along with a funky groove while ‘NaaNaaNaa’ also has a sly-stone-meets-jimmy-smith-in-church feel. Quite angular and experimental in places
