Listening to the retro addition of high-pitched saxophone wailing, coupled with modern house synths and drum kits, invites new and old listeners alike to experience the song from a unique angle. It’s this unbridled passion for soul music and modern production that fuse together to make both Jarvis Church’s cover of “Just The Two Of Us, as well as The Soul Station Vol 3: A Tribute To Bill Withers and Beyond, so special. Club Nouveau’s version was one of my favourite songs when I was a kid there was just no way to top that.” “I did about five versions of it, but I couldn’t get a modern take I was happy with. In addition to “Just The Two Of Us,” The Soul Station Vol 3: will also include “Lovely Day,” “Use Me,” and “Ain’t No Sunshine.” Deliberately missing? “Lean On Me,” he reveals. “And, for each of the modern production styles of the four Bill Withers classics, I used contemporary hits as sonic references. “I decided to lose the retro sound, and interpret these classics with contemporary modern production. “This time, however, there’s a twist,” Jarvis hints of the new offering that features four inventive and contemporary reimaginings of Withers’ hits. The release is fresh from Jarvis Church’s forthcoming album, The Soul Station Vol 3: A Tribute to Bill Withers and Beyond - the latest in an ongoing series paying tribute to his favourite soul singers. That only a handful of artists are able to do Bill Withers justice, especially when it comes to some of his most famous work, is what makes Jarvis Church’s newly minted cover of “Just The Two Of Us” - available now - so refreshing: It pays fitting homage to the late legend, while remaining unique all on its own. ![]()
