June 18, 2009 New Music: Maxwell – BLACKsummers’ Night

maxwell-album-cover-061009-1

Maxwell returns from nearly a decade-long hiatus with his new 3-part album, BLACKsummers’ Night. The first disc is set to hit stores on July 7th, with the next two scheduled for release in 2010 and 2011. Love muffins, I have to say that I’m a little disappointed with this first installment. I absolutely love the lead single “Pretty Wings”, but this album leaves me feeling a little empty. Maybe because it’s only 9 songs? I’m not sure…this one might have to grow on me. Hopefully BlackSUMMERS’ Night and Blacksummers’ NIGHT leave me feeling a bit more fulfilled.

Don’t forget, Maxwell will be hitting the stage at the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans on July 4th!

Love muffins, I hope you enjoyed the download while it lasted! Please support Maxwell by purchasing BLACKsummers’ Night when it hits stores July 7th. You can pre-order the album through iTunes by clicking here.
