Music Review: Sleepytime Out on the Porch With Leon
Rating: 3 Stars
I like Mr. Redbone but I wish he'd pick up his tempos. He's at his best when he finds songs which lend themselves to his particular jazzy synopation. In this CD, however, he does not do that. Instead he runs the range from subdued to somnambular. It's like listening to Leon play his guitar and sing on a hot summer night, on the front porch, after a big meal, when no one feels like moving including him. Even his rendition of the lively "Sitting on Top of the World" is torpid. In my opinion the best renditions on this album are a couple songs meant to be warbled slowly: "Any Time" and "Louisana Fairytale." I would include "In the Shade of the Old Appletree" with these two but Mr. Redbone's pace as he sings that one is fossilized tortoise.

Description of Anytime (Reis)
All products are BRAND NEW and factory sealed. Fast shipping and 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed.Before Leon Redbone's ineffable 1975 debut, On the Track, appeared, rumors circulated that this offbeat presence was actually a Bob Dylan alter ego. Given Dylan's winning croon on his Sopranos cover of "Return to Me," the distance between the song-poet's wisdom and Redbone's friendly Tin Pan Alley exhumations has shrunk somewhat of late. Anytime, while hardly as surprising as his earliest work, finds Redbone still making small, intriguing connections between material as far afield as blackface entertainer Emmett Miller's (and later, Eddy Arnold's) classic title tune, Jelly Roll Morton's "Sweet Substitute," and "In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree." Applying his pleasant Bing-meets-Jimmie Rodgers murmur to the impossibly hoary likes of "Moonlight Bay" and "Blossoms on Broadway," Redbone achieves some of the album's most indelible moments; the dream world he conjures is irresistible. Anytime's small-band jazz arrangements make it fine comfort music, with the guest clarinets of Ken Peplowski, Bob Gordon, and Dan Levinson a particularly welcome touch. Those not familiar with the pleasure Redbone can give should first buy On the Track, but longtime fans will no doubt appreciate this new addition to his discography. --Rickey Wright
