Love Is... Infinite is the debut album from Dallas soul artist Gypsy Mitchell. Born in 1952, Gypsy co-founded the legendary gospel funk group The Relatives (Heavy Light/Daptone) in 1970, then spent the following decades on the Chitlin' Circuit playing guitar alongside R&B and funk titans such as Buddy Ace, Johnnie Taylor, The Bar-Kays, and Joe Simon. Gypsy's raw vocals evoke Bobby Womack and Darondo, his guitar Nile Rodgers and Ernie Isley, yet this isn't a reheated retro number but ten deeply personal 30th-century soul songs from an authentic Texan artist who manages to blend vintage, modern and interstellar sounds in the most natural way. Guests include Houston rap legend Paul Wall, Hi-Rhythm keyboardist Archie Turner, and arranger Pete Lanctot (Aaron Frazer, Durand Jones & the Indications). Lovingly produced by Zach Ernst and Matthew Strmiska (Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears), Love Is... Infinite is a refined, quintessentially Texan record that blurs the boundaries between vintage soul and contemporary psychedelic and breakbeat sounds. Despite all this, the album's grace lies in the brilliant songwriting and musical knowledge of an artist devoid of cynicism and calculation, who just says what he has to say.
