Free Music Review: jazz lovers
Hit: 5 Stars
Worth every penny for jazz lovers/ Al Jarreau lovers. Some great jazz tunes, great arrangements. Sooo beautiful. I hate to see Jarreau getting older, close to 70, but he can sing for me anytime. He's still got it...a heck of a musical ear. Loyal fans will love this CD, correctly categorized as Jazz... the smooth sensitive tones, the touch of "Jarreau scats" but not overtaking the superb jazz accompaniment. I never want him to stop singing. I love the CD.
Accentuate the Positive Poster
Al Jarreau's style bridges Jon Hendricks's vocalese and Bobby McFerrin's incredible flights of fancy. This CD, with Diana Krall's rhythm section--guitarist Anthony Wilson, drummer Peter Erskine, and bassist Christian McBride--should please fans of albums like Jarreau's phenomenal 1977 live LP, Look to the Rainbow. Duke Ellington's "I'm Beginning to See the Light" is illuminated by Larry Goldings's down-home Hammond organ, while Lionel Hampton's "Midnight Sun" bops with hip-hop-friendly rim shots. Jarreau's tenor tones curve with saxophonic dexterity and pulse with percussive precision, especially on Dizzy Gillespie's "Groovin' High," where he slyly drops in a few words from the old show tune, "Whispering." --Eugene Holley, Jr.Broadway & Vocalists Music CDs
