"This (the album) is the real thing, this is me. I'm about looking for progression, inner growth and if you like, the holy grail. I’ve created my own retro soul sound, based on the Tamla/Motown basics at the heart of which are prolific musicians, real songs and even more straight, no sign of digital trickery. This record is real instruments played by real musicians, thank you ma’am, performing my real songs. The only thing close to a synthesizer is a mini-moog. OK, of that I'm guilty.’’ Father & Friend backs that claim right up. The song is a duet between Alain and his father Dane Clark, a retired clubsinger from Aruba (Dutch Antilles) who emigrated to Holland and over the years has fronted several popular R&B soul revues. Father & Friend has become an emotional show stopper and at the time of this writing is poised to go to #1 in Holland. Alain says, "A good friend gave me the idea for the duet ‘reminding’ me that my dad's a fantastic singer, who brought me up in a musical environment. He asked if I'd ever recorded anything with my dad. Umm, nope! The result is Father & Friend, a celebration of sorts which has intensified our wonderful relationship." Video Dienstag 7.
