Various Artists ~ This star-studded
smooth-jazz tribute to
Luther Vandross adds credence to
the idea that the saxophone is the instrument that comes closest to
mimicking the human voice. The passion that these reed players--including
Kirk Whalum,
Boney James,
Mindi Abair, and
Dave Koz--pour into their respective
tracks makes it seems like they're speaking right from the heart. Guitarist
Paul Jackson Jr. does a very funky
turn on "Never Too Much," and two of the most underrated singers in
contemporary urban music,
Lalah Hathaway and
Ledisi, also provide highlights.
But the sax players steal the show, trying to match Vandross's fiery
intensity, while much of the rest of the cast seem content to offer
basic remakes. That's not necessarily a bad thing; co-producer and keyboard
whiz
Rex Rideout has delivered a thoroughly
enjoyable listen from beginning to end, allowing smooth-jazz fans to
sing along with Vandross's very familiar catalog. |
