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.

EWF members are also participating.

Phenomenon

Phenomenon /LL Cool J (1997)
                      feat. Myron Mckinley



One of my favorite rapper is LL Cool J!

Although Sonny Emory of Earth, Wind & Fire is also contained in one of my favorite, of course ...

Ladies Love Cool James is abbreviated to his name.

Supposing I follow the example to him and make an artist name is like that.
LD H K.→Ladies dislike hot Kaolu/
Something like that.

I owned the albums of him about 10,and sometimes I listen to.
But recently I realized that a member of EWF participated in this album.

Myron Mckinley

In the "”Don't Be Late, Don't Come Too Soon ”,
He played Flead fender Rhodes along soft lead vocal Tamia.

Philip Bailey has released new album!

The article rise which is though I'm so belated
While this blog wasn't being checked for a while, important new information was coursing through with comments in communication board of Japanese Version.

I was quite busy, so the latest information collection of EWF was neglected, but everybody of EWF fan informed me of news, and I really thank them !

Now, the most important matter would be this !

With what! Philip Bailey released a new mini album!




1 Love Is Real

2 Won't Waste Time

3 You In I

4 We're Gonna Make It

Bonus Track Cruel Time

John Paris and Myron McKinley of Earth,Wind& Fire did participated in songwritting.

This album that each songs had the respective expressions.
It was shocking, but it was easy to enjoy!
5 thick characters of the three-dimensional world seem to appear and make them listen without sarcasm.

This work that we can feel the whole surface of new Philip Bailey with taking an electro sound and rhythm of bossa nova in!

This is really wonderful album that I want to recomend to all people!



PS

I went to the live of Philip Bailey at Blue Note yesterday.
It was time when the EWF members participated, and it was really wonderful.

Philip Bailey performed two songs from this new album.

I found this CD of "Love Is Real" sold in a lobby before s live started.

Oh? I bought it, did not this album sell only in download?

An autographed photograph of Philip Bailey was attached, besides,I cannot stop buying this!


But I could not found this CD though I searched it with words "Philip Bailey " "Love Is Real" 2 CD" in a net .
Is it CD for exclusive use of the sale in the live place?

Sophisticated adult music indeed!

I feel really good to listen!

EWF members of the group's full of talent!
That's why they can keep on attractting us always,I think.

Myron Mckinley and Ray Brown participated in this album.

But unfortunately, I could't find the infomaton for purchase ///

I wonder why such kind of good music is not distributed in general way.
