Walk Alone

Released

Cool Waters’ 1993 self-titled album is a beguiling mix of smooth with gospel and synth soul, emanating from Philadelphia. The man behind it, Napoleon Cherry, began to get some notice in the years ahead, his nuanced, deeply in-the-pocket drum programming catching the ears of discerning DJs. It led to this 2015 compilation of music for the Music From Memory label, showcasing the man’s many talents, including the uncanny knack to craft strip club beats smooth enough for the supper club.
