Music reviews of Christmas Eyes
Music Review: A Christmas delight.
Rating: 4 Stars
Ahh... fire on, tree lit, presents wrapped, children in bed - sit back on your comfy chair, put this CD on and press play... enter a wonderful world of top flight, tinsel-covered fusion jazz!
Bob James is not new to this kind of music genre.
He has a few Christmas songs floating around out there featuring his distinctive keyboard playing, including two appearing on the 1997 compilation "Warner Bros. Christmas Jazz Party",((one track "Personent Hodie (Sing Aloud on This Day)", with the Bob James Trio and a duet with banjo master Bela Fleck, for a totally new spin on "White Christmas" ), as well he released another succesful festive albums with the jazz supergroup group Fourplay.
This one, anyway, is his first solo holidays offering, featuring her daughter Hilary, a fantastic musician and sensitive, distinctive vocalist.
The CD is produced by Kevin DiSimone, Hilary's husband (Bob's son-in-law).
Bob's and Hilary's previous album, Flesh and Blood was an instant classic.
Perfect for chillin' out during the busy Christmas season !
If you are a fan of Bob and even if you aren't, this is the BEST holiday CD right now.
Hilary's voice is so smooth and you can't help but make it part of your holiday CD collection.
Despite the critical success of "Flesh And Blood", she hasn't taken off yet and she still has the best sound that's slightly R&B but also just "good listening" for everyone.
Hilary James a wonderful singer! I can't praise her enough. She is so pleasing to the ears. A Must have for anyone's Christmas CD Collection. Every song is so good!
This may be stretching the 'jazz' category even wider than usual, but James is one of the world's leading jazz heyboard player, and his concept of a Christmas album is so much more sophisticated than the norm that it's the only possible choice for this season.
The 14 tracks include a spread of music from traditional carols to classical music (Bach) and some new stuff co-written with Kevin DiSimone.
Some of the greatest jazz musicians like Dave Koz and Chuck Loeb lend a hand.
There is an irresistible feeling of serenity and calm about the whole thing.
Bob you are the MAN!! Hilary, your voice is Heavenly! The music and arrangements are first rate!
A Must have for anyone's Christmas CD Collection.
I highly recommend this CD. Have I convinced you?
Album Highlights: "Winter Wonderland", "A Star Was His Nightlight" and "Ballulalow".
