| José James has a
reputation as a 21st century musical renaissance man. He's issued a
remarkably consistent series of records that blur the lines between
soul, funk, dance music, jazz, and rock. In addition, in 2010, he
released For All We Know, a fine collection of jazz standards in duet
with Belgian pianist Jef Neve. It is from this place that James releases
Yesterday I Had the Blues: The Music of Billie Holiday. In his liner
essay he cites Holiday as the artist who made him aspire to be a jazz
singer. Accompanied by pianist Jason Moran, drummer Eric Harland, and
bassist John Patitucci, James delivers a program of beauty and restraint
for the centennial of her birth. James, who has the ability to
accomplish startling vocalese and scat techniques, brings none it. |
