The debut from this white, Michigan-bred former hip-hop DJ re-creates the sound of Motown classics and other falsetto-laden AM-radio gems, complete with sparkling, horn-specked production and G-rated come-ons. With his thin but sweet croon, Mayer Hawthorne floats over the ballads, but the two best tunes are uptempo: The killer-chorused "Your Easy Lovin' Ain't Pleasin' Nothin' " and "One Track Mind," a Temptations-style plaint about a high-maintenance lady whom you'll swear you've heard on an oldies station — and liked a lot.
