Frank Jackson Reviewed 2009-06-10 | ||
John Miller is a longtime Broadway player and on this album he tackles classic Broadway standards. Most are nice and mellow along with a couple funkier numbers. Many are with full orchestra. My pics are 4, 5 9 and 12. No FCC’s. 1. (3:22) Slow/Mid. Acoustic guitar and drum stroll with some rag-timey piano and trombone. 2. (4:13) Slow/Mid. Very James Taylor-ish with harmonica and backing vocals, easy feel. 3. (4:14) Mid. Latin overtones, sings partly in Spanish. Cool trumpets near end with maracas and congas. 4. (4:39) Slow/Mid. Slow violin and accordion at start with guitar then tempo picks up, great backing vocals, especially at end. 5. (2:44) Mid/Fast. Strong drum beat, funky bass, organ, electric guitar. Really funktified. 6. (2:51) Mid. Trumpet intro with cool percussion and bass, gets into a poppy sound. Nice backing vocals. 7. (2:53) Mid. Portuguese lyric phrases, really has that French feel. 8. (3:19) Slow/Mid. Nice slow start with vocal, bass and violin, then keys and drums come in. Playful. 9. (4:24) Mid. Jazzy with horns and castanets. Female backing vocals, cool chime passages. 10.(2:37) Slow/Mid. Vocal, guitar, keys intro. Nice change with dobro. 11.(3:32) Mid. Female acapella intro. Male vocal comes in with strings. Nice and easy guitar, lots of orchestral instruments. 12. (2:43) Mid/Fast. Drum and funky bass intro. Really funky with an understated vocal. Cool horn change which brings in the orchestra. |
