Album Description
Steve Cropper's guitar, production and songwriting embodied the sound and the spirit of Stax and the southern soul of the `60s. At the same time, in the Northeast, there was a band called The Rascals, whose sound was epitomized by the brilliant songs, B-3 organ and voice of Felix Cavaliere. Now these two R&B legends come together to Nudge It Up a Notch, a tour de force of 12 smokin' original tunes, guaranteed to satisfy your soul.

 Sorry. I really wanted to love this one. September 3, 2008
I'm a huge Rascals/Felix Cavaliere fan but this one missed the point for me.
It has its moments (like the groove on Jamaica Delight) but overall it sounds a lot like Felix's Dreams In Motion CD which remains my least favorite of his solo stuff.
He's a killer B-3 player and didn't Cropper play in a B-3 band?
Seems like there could have been a lot more interplay and maybe some more spontaneity and just plain "fun" on this one; a bit more Love Appetite stuff, perhaps; a bit more B-3, to be sure!
Only 3 stars here for a couple of 5-star musicians!
Where have you been? September 3, 2008
I wa a huge blues brothers fan so I remember cropper from that. I have watched that movie since I was only enough to remeber watching tv, now my kids love Blues brothers. This cd is not real bluesy. It is more jazzy. It is a good album especially for background music. I play it at work.
 Blue eyed soul for the new millenium August 31, 2008
This is a great CD.. Two of the absolute greatest performers from 40 years ago have lost nothing, no reduction in playing and singing. Great rock, smooth ballads, more great rock

I was always a fan of Felix Cavalliere of the Rascals and the Young Rascals. Certainly one of the first blue-eyed soul groups. On the radio, every 15 minutes a rascals song played on every station. Thats why I bought the CD. I thought that I could re-capture that sound and that free-wheelin feeling with a modern day twist. Here he was, Felix C. The voice was not even close to the same or on key at many points. A lot of repetitive oh Yeah, Oh Yeah, Oh yeah utterings at the beggining of most tracks before the words would start. Artificial. I think that I will discard it. I don't think that I can find someone who might like it.
I LOVE this album! August 26, 2008
I swear Felix and Steve are getting better with age! So glad to hear these guys together - what a treat for the ears and soul. I'm turning on my friends to this and they think it's fab. Turn it up a notch and enjoy!!
