Music reviews of Thousand Kisses Deep
Music Review: ROMANCE MADE EASY! (Too Easy?)
Rating: 4 Stars
Count me in with those people who feel that in the last 20 years talent in the arts has greatly waned. Most movies serve as nothing more than frameworks on which to hang anesthetizing displays of outrageous violence by spiritually and morally dead directors, or computer-generated special effects by self-infatuated, downloadable electro geeks. "Music" is now the domain of inked up, hole punched, fabricated angst-spewing White college rejects armed with two or three chords and weenie whiny voices. (Ya gotta love them nonconformists! And they're so easy to spot because they all look alike.) Or their young Black counterparts, the monobeat, sideways baseball cap and tank top undershirt-wearing, boom box-blasting inner city youths rhyming rage at "the man" who denies them the jobs they weren't qualified for and never wanted in the first place. (Didja get all that? Or shall I run it by ya one mo' time?) And today's writers? Right! Like anybody'll be reading that stuff fifty years from now.
So, ya gotta understand my skepticism when Friend Melanie gave me an "Aught" recording; in this case, "Aught three." (That's 2003 for my slower fans.) This was "Strike one!" It was called 'A Thousand Kisses Deep' - "Strike two!" And the performer was a young man with blonde hair and frosted highlights - "Strike three! You're out!"
Aw...but since Melanie is a good friend of mine, I humored her by accepting it with a lopsided grin and the promise to listen with an open mind. (SLAM! BANG! CLICK! BOLT! BAR! and the rattling of a heavy chain and reinforced padlock, with the incessant ambulating of a particularly agitated junkyard dog just inside the entrance. There! That oughta keep the frosted girlie-men outta here.)
Late one night some time later, nuttin' to do. A little music might be nice. What we got here? Oh yeah, Felony Melanie's CHRIS BOTTI bit - 'A THOUSAND KISSES DEEP.' I'll spin it once, kiss it goodbye and deep-six it. That's what I thought. Next thing I know, I've recovered from my reverie to find that I'm bare-chested in the darkened room with the fireplace aglow, two glasses of fine Cabernet Sauvignon glinting like rubies on the hearth, and my best shirt ripped and lying in the corner. WHAT THE HELEN A. HANDBASKET HAPPENED HERE?!
Forty-five minutes and forty-five seconds of some of the most sensual, romantic "make out" music ever digitally encoded onto a silver colored disc is what had happened here! The frosted dude with the lusty trumpet took me and my imaginary dreamboat on a late night moonlit canoe ride up a liquid lover's lane. It's a good thing I hadn't programmed the disc to repeat because I might have been taken advantage of by my imagination. As it was, I barely escaped with my innocence intact. Is this the greatest seduction set ever recorded? Quite possibly. Every copy should come with a package of those little water balloons. Either that or a Bible.
Make no mistake about it, Chris Botti is not just another "Artist of the Aughts" - that is: fully styled but suffering from NDT (No Discernable Talent). No sir, he knows his way around that trumpet, and on 'A Thousand Kisses Deep' he sets a relaxed, romantically-infused mood from the opening track, 'Indian Summer', and with flirting phrases, trance-inducing tones, gentle aural gyrations and stabbing rhythms he carries it to its sweet and soft conclusion. I probably could have justified giving 'A Thousand Kisses Deep' five stars, but - although there's nothing at all really "dirty" about it - that would almost be like giving five stars to the X-rated movie, 'Deep Throat.' Even so, every would-be Romeo or Casanova really should have a copy of this album stashed between the candles and the crystal glasses.....but be careful how you use it, and who you use it on; this could spell deep trouble - a thousand kisses deep.
OK, I've got the perfect mood music, the wine, and the fireplace. Now the only thing I need to find is a girlfriend. Anybody seen one?
Oh never mind; I think maybe I'd better just go read my Bible.
