[2/18/2008]【爵士钢琴】爵士钢琴演奏家Alan Hewitt 2006年专辑《Metropolis》 （MP



引用:



Artist : Alan Hewitt
Album : Metropolis
Date : 2006
Label : 215 Records
Genre : Jazz












Metropolis is a very polished, cohesive, multi-layered album featuring Hewitt
on piano, keys, and drums;  Chad Wright on drums;  Jervonny  Collier on bass;
Brian Price on guitar; Gerald Spikes on sax; Steve Madaio on trumpet; Wendell
Kelly on trombone;  Shea Chambers on vocals; and special guest, Steve Oliver,
on guitar. The project begins with the mood setting into,  “Vibe” and moves
right  into the upbeat  “Joyride”  which is  reminiscent of a  drive up the
California coast.  Following  that is  “Velvet Kisses, ”  a beautiful, very
mellow and  gentle track. Keeping  things mellow  but  with a nice  low-keyed
groove, is the title track. Hewitt gives us a very fresh, laidback version of
Sly Stone’s  “Hot Fun In The Summertime.”  With its great horn section and
background vocals, Hewitt’s take on this one is one of the highlights of the
project.  Picking up the  pace is the fun,  joyous and  jazzy “Swingin”  On
Sunset” – another track with a great horn section. This one is an interesting
blend of retro and contemporary grooves.Slowing thigs back down is the cinematic,
silky and ethereal “Liquid Blue,” followed by sultry and soulful, “So In Love”
with its fantastic tenor sax playing by Gerald Spikes. And featuring Spikes again
on tenor sax is the very melodic R&B vibe of “Lost In Emotion.” “Indigo” is
a down-tempo yet funky and soulful… nice horns!Closing things up is “Soleil”
- featuring Steve Oliver. There is a great chemistry between Oliver and Hewitt,
making “Soleil” another highlight of the project and a great ending to a great CD.
