Soul On Jazz

Soul On Jazz / Philip Bailey (2002)

The second jazz album released by Philip Bailey on Heads Up Records.

I feel like I'm deeper into the jazz territory than his previous album.
Still, full-fledged jazz sound ...
It heals you especially when you listen at night.


This sound was based on the rhythm of Warner's decades ago.
More standard, more impressive ...
One that makes a nice space.

Except for "Unrestrained" in 6, this is a jazz classic released by other artists.
They are dyed in Philip Bailey color and listened.
If you like Western liquor, make this album a BGM ,will make you feel more relaxed  than before.

Life And Love

Life And Love / Philip Bailey (1998)

This album was produced by Jean Paul Mauick of Incognito.

When it was released, I liked the sound of Incognito,
When they came to Japan, I went to see their live.
“Always There” is a live performance every time, and was created by former EWF member Ronnie Lows.
By the way, "Steppin 'Through Time" pre-released as a single

Although it is an incognito taste, the back is a gorgeous performance reminiscent of EWF.
I have an exciting memory of Philip Bailey's new song that is different from before.
The collaboration between British jazz sound and Philip was fresh ...

This is a diverse album that contains songs of various tastes.
A work that offers a wonderful experience with various approaches and melodies.

Two songs with Jean Paul Mauick of Incognito are the highlights of this album ...
I personally like the second song "Anything Is Possible" anyway!

Listen to this album for the first time in a few years while being ashamed ...
This song was from Philip Bailey?
I remembered.
The catchy melody is an impression that once hit and resembled a familiar standard for everyone.

Hallucinations that everyone has heard ...
It is related to the catch of this song,
Perhaps I went to Philip Bailey's solo live several times and listened to it.

Philip Bailey's best album!
However, "Easy Lover", which was a huge hit, is not included.

A cut of popular songs from three gospel albums released by Word Records.
As you can see from the author's face, many hit song makers participated.

Eduardo del Barrio co-authored Earth, Wind & Fire's “Runnin” and “Fantasy”.
Composers Skip Scarborough such as "Can't Hide Love" and "Love Music".
Furthermore,  George Duke ...

It is a wonderful gospel album that can blend naturally into the general public.
※ I like “Come Before His Presence” best ...

It seems to be the most gospel in this album, but ...
Listening to this song feels like a refreshing heart.

Family Affair

Family Affair  / Philip Bailey (1989)



The fifth solo album and the third gospel album.
Similar to the previous work, POP melodies and rhythms are different from conventional gospel images.

I think beautiful falsetto voices are divine and a good tool to convey thheir message.
"No Compromise" and "Lonely Broken Hearted People" should easily reach the hearts of non-faithless people.
I think it is a masterpiece.
It seems that the personality of each song has not been released ...
Sheldon Reynolds seems to be playing on guitar.


1　　This Is How the Work Gets Done (Charlie Peacock)
2　　Family Affair (Philip Bailey, Pamela Phillips-Oland, Monty Seward)
3　　No Compromise (Philip Bailey, Rev. Oliver W. Wells)
4　　Lonely Broken Hearted People (Philip Bailey, Richard Smallwood, Rev. Oliver W. Wells)
5　　Oasis (Philip Bailey, Rev. Oliver W. Wells)
6　　Where Can I Go? (Philip Bailey, Rev. Oliver W. Wells)

 8　　Love That Lasts (Rev. Oliver W. Wells)
 9　　Call to War (Philip Bailey, Richard Smallwood, Rev. Oliver W. Wells)
10　Lord You Reign (Philip Bailey, Richard Smallwood, Rev. Oliver W. Wells)

Trumph

Trumph / Philip Bailey (1986)

Triumph

Here is the second gospel album released by Philip Bailey . 

I purchased this album before the previous work "THE WONDERS OF HIS LOVE"


Like  Earth, Wind & Fire ,This album conveys a spiritual message .
The concept is a great essence of appeal, The songs on this album, even for those who don't listen to gospel, GIG can be quite funky ...

 I was really impressed by the POP ♪ songs that sang GOD.
"Come Before His Presence" especially arranged at the end.
 This message is profound and goose bumps stand!
 Isn't this a historic album that blends religion and POP wonderfully?
EWF members are not participating as much as the last gospel album. . .
Gorgeous members such as George Duke, Greg Phillingines, and Paul Jackson gather!
EWF's Andrew Woolfolk  is on the seventh track "Bring It To Jesus"!
