The Terri Green Project - What's Going On?
LABEL: Legere RecordingsMedia Condition: Near Mint
Sleeve Condition: Near Mint
Before the global pandemic, the Terri Green Project and Cornell 'CC' Carter planned to collaborate on a cover version of Marvin Gaye classic 'What's Going On?' That collaboration has now finally seen the light of day, and the finished version features a wealth of other independent soul artists in supporting roles. In its original Toddi Reed and Terri Green mix form (side B), the track is a warm, groovy, head-nodding update of the conscious soul favourite, with the variety of voices on show only emphasizing the power of the song's infamously on-point lyrics. Rob Hardt's A-side mix, a slicker and more musically detailed affair featuring a more prominent bassline, sweeping synth-strings and positive piano parts, is arguably even better.
