Soul-chanteuse Shelly Rudolph, a longtime Portland, Oregon favorite, loves love and shows it in sleek funky style on her new single. For dance floor action and heart fluttering, Rudolph's “I Love LOVE” combines her own delicious vocal layerings with the soulful savvy of Charlie Hunter, the legendary guitarist with that something extra.

Among the highlights are an inventively re-harmonized version of “Stand By Me,” a sweetly soulful duet with Redray Frazier on “Slow Life,” and gospel-tinged opening and closing tracks, “Close Enough” and “Calling Me Home.” Long a poet as well as a songstress, the album showcases her poetic and sensual expressivity on “The Way with Love,” spoken against a sumptuous bed of Darling’s cello tones.
