An explosive mixture of soul, blues and rock - this is probably the best way to describe Paul Millns' music. There's no doubt that connoisseurs of the scene will want to discover a certain kindred spirit with colleagues like Joe Cocker, the pop-poet Randy Newman or even Ray Charles. As happens so often - such general attempts at categorization are certain to have a spark of truth to them, but rarely get to the heart of the matter. Instead, Millns is a very independent musician personality, far from the commercial mainstream and with a completely unmistakable, earthy charisma. If you hear Unsung Heroes with 12 of Millns' new songs, you will certainly ask why this British pianist hasn't already taken over the top position in the white soul scene. The answer is simple: He already did it twenty years ago, but now it's time for everyone to finally notice it. Or, as a British newspaper put it: "If there was something like musical justice, then Millns would have to fill the largest concert halls in the country!"
