Music reviews of Beyond Words

Music Review: Mellow Wine
Rating: 4 Stars

you find yourself easily humming along to some of the tracks. this is an album to soften lights and burn incense by, i always play it end to end without wondering or worrying about getting to a particular track.

jazz fans will be delighted by chick corea's return. the dance between he and mcferrin has mellowed and calmed since 'play'. i think it works much better. there is not so much virtuoso posturing this time, but the energy is punchy still. the reason for this is none other than omar hakim, the drummer who thrilled the world in sting's 'bring on the night' live concert in paris. he and mcferrin have a natural playfulness in their approach to music. anyone familiar with both will find this collaboration rewarding.

this is a nicely complex form of smooth, warm, internationally flavored jazzy music.
