Three years on from their career-defining hit “Just Be Good To Me” and the SOS Band’s Sands of Time again showcases the mid-’80s Jam and Lewis sound which had by now solidified into a set of crisp, effective production techniques. At the centre of Sands… is a jewel of ’80s R’n’B, the refined soul sophistication and cutting edge synths/drum machine beats of “The Finest” which provide the perfect backing for Mary Davis’ refined vocals. Elsewhere jams like “Nothing But The Best” and “Do You Still Want To?” nail a confident, restrained and uptown soul aesthetic and throughout the album, J&L repeat their career-defining trick of forging heartfelt, soul-filled songs from synthesised sounds, digital electric keys and drum box robot rhythms.
