Ride This Train (Extended Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThree years on from its original release, Beautiful Dreams remains one of the most compelling independent soul debuts of recent years - a bold, emotionally rich record steeped in Southern soul, blues \u0026amp; classic funk. Driven by Acantha Lang's powerhouse vocals, the album blends deeply personal songwriting with fiery horn arrangements, organ-laced grooves, gritty guitar work \u0026amp; the timeless spirit of classic Stax \u0026amp; Memphis soul, while speaking with a distinctly contemporary voice. Upon release, the album achieved early commercial traction in the UK, charting on both the Official UK Independent Album Breakers Chart \u0026amp; the Official UK Jazz \u0026amp; Blues Chart. The album received strong BBC 6 Music Radio support and critical praise for its authenticity, songwriting \u0026amp; vocal power. With the renewed global appetite for soul-forward artists such as Olivia Dean, Jalen Ngonda, Lady Wray and Thee Sacred Souls, alongside the enduring influence of icons such as Aretha Franklin \u0026amp; Gladys Knight, Beautiful Dreams sits confidently at the intersection of timeless Southern soul tradition \u0026amp; contemporary market demand. \"A thirteen track set of undiluted soulfulness\" - 5\/5 - Echoes Magazine \"Traces [of] Aretha Franklin, the young Mavis Staples, even Nina Simone, but the whole thing belongs only to her\" - 4\/5 - Soul Bag Magazine (France)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assai Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57696292209023,"sku":"MBR01LPC","price":26.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1565\/5653\/files\/c478b09b5a204ad191a66eb216f63ba0.jpg?v=1780730126","url":"https:\/\/assai.co.uk\/products\/acantha-lang-beautiful-dreams-vinyl-lp-oxblood-red-colour-due-out-26-06-26","provider":"Assai Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
