Why I Stock This Record
This is a US House / Deep House must-have. Larry Heard’s Love’s Arrival is a truly exceptional Deep House album from start to finish.
I can easily name a few standout tracks — “Luminous Energy”, “Havana”, and especially “Missing You” (Jazz Cafe mix) — but honestly, you need to give the whole record a proper listen. Every track is outstanding.
It’s got that signature Larry Heard depth, warmth and soul that sets it apart. I reach for this album regularly, whether I’m listening at home or DJing.
If you’re into Deep House, this Alleviated reissue is a must-have for everybody’s collection — whether you’re a Deep House enthusiast, vinyl collector, or vinyl DJ. Clean copy and plays strong every time.
Review
Larry Heard's strain of deep house absolutely lends itself to the album format, and he demonstrated this flawlessly on the 2001 album Love's Arrival. Decades on from his first forays into production at the dawn of house music, Heard's sound slipped into a dreamlike lounge-state which spoke to continued development of his melodic sensibilities. Just stick on 'Praise' and let the sound unfurl around you, full of the aching melancholy which gives his music such power. Like machine jazz funk beaming from another dimension, this is deep house at its very best, as made by one of the true architects of the sound.
