Free Music Review: Earl Klugh Is Flawlessly Playing The Spice of Life . . . C'est Si Bon
Hit: 5 Stars
"I wanted to create something that would encompass a wide spectrum of directions: solo, standards, originals, electronic, acoustic and orchestral. I wanted to make a recording that would reflect where I am at this moment in my life, and something I am proud to present to my fans." ~ Earl Klugh ~
True to his word, multi-Grammy winner, Earl Klugh made his conception into fruition with this latest offering from one of the best guitarists ever, "The Spice of Life," a beautiful album that contains thirteen tracks. It is more of a showcase of his original compositions and a few notable standards each rendered in an eloquently tasteful manner. The lush orchestrations of a fine arranger/conductor and also a multi-Grammy winner, Don Sebesky, can be heard on my top three favorites from this set; the smooth and breezy "Canadian Sunset," a gorgeous French classic, "C'est Si Bon" and a charming all-time gem of a tune, "My Foolish Heart."
From among his original compositions marked by pleasing harmonic chords, I so enjoyed the opener "Ocean Blue," "Morning In Rio," "Driftin'" and "Venezuelan Nights," a tribute to one of his favorite classical guitarists/composers, Antonio Lauro from Venezuela whose transcriptions truly impressed Klugh when he was young. In addition, Klugh reinvents and revives a rarely recorded Thelonious Monk melody "Bye Ya" with a new groove that shows off his skilled guitar riffs.
This recording will surely give a delightful listening adventure not only to fans of Earl Klugh, but also to anyone who appreciates lovely guitar music and a talented musician such as Mr. Klugh.
With my heartfelt recommendation. You'll love it as much as I do.
