Loose Fingers

Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Those are some of the words spoken when describing the almost indescribable music of Larry Heard (AKA Mr. Fingers).

Arguably one of the Godfathers of House Music, Heard’s musical influence can be heard in the songs of countless artists – in the dance music world and beyond. For those who appreciate warm and passionate electronic compositions, Larry's music is pure magic. Larry has been blessed with a unique gift that sends listeners into a blissful euphoric state.

From his first releases on Chicago’s Trax Records in the mid-80’s as Fingers, Inc. and Mr. Fingers, Heard has created classics for both the underground and the mainstream, releasing albums in the arenas of dance, R&B, and ambient over almost two decades.

His latest album, Loose Fingers is a stunning testament to his artistic integrity. Featuring collaborations with saxophonist Stan Johnson and KemeticJust’s Justin Chapman, Larry continues to retain his unique and inviting sound. For us who have heard his voice and music, we wouldn't have it any other way!

3 out of 5 stars The plight of a true Genius..........2005-09-13

Larry Heard has always been a complete inspiration to my soul. His music has always been at the forefront of my playlists. His new release "Loosefingers" was actually a bittersweet album for me though. The first half of the album is so pure and breezy; music to lose yourself into, but the second techno influenced half of the album was quite annoying and I feel bad saying this about his music because I am very much a devoted fan. My favorite tracks on the album are "Deep Inside", "Spirit Sensitive" and "When Summer Comes", all music that carries the vegetating vocal and breezy vibe that I expect from the Legend himself. Although, I felt a little robbed because I own longer versions of "Deep Inside" and "When Summer Comes" on vinyl and was expecting them on the CD. Please stick with your knockout punches on future releases, Larry! ;)

I have been a fan of Larry Heard (aka Mr. Fingers) for well over a decade and own just about everything he has ever produced. I am a little dissappointed with this album as I feel he is still attempting to experiment with this more progressive/techno type sound. I wish he would just stick to the smooth jazzy dance tracks and vocals for which he most loved and recognized for before he ends up alienating his true fan base.

That being said, I loved the first half of the album but got bored very quickly with the second half. My favorites are 'Deep inside' and 'Changes'
