Finally, some good male jazz vocals...

Music Lane

It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

I've been listening to Kevin Mahogany's "Another Time, Another Place" and I'm VERY pleased. This CD is a little commercial, but ONLY a little. Man, can this guy sing. Deep, velvet voice with excellent dexterity for scat, tempered by a serious jazz musician's brain (he apparantly was a sax and piano player at some point). On this CD, at least, he surrouds himself with top-shelf sidemen: Lovano and Chestnut. This is the guy I've been waiting for.
Next, I'm gonna check out "You got What It Takes", which is also pretty jazzy from what I can gather.
His newest is forthcoming on Telarc ("Pride and Joy"). But, it looks like this is some kind of a tribute to Motown...not jazz, per se. He's surrounded by nothing but acoustic instruments, however, and it WILL have that great Telarc sound! Probably worth taking a chance -- he exhibits class and taste on "Another Time".
