2010 two CD release from the Jazz saxophonist. Kirk Whalum elevates his award winning Gospel According To Jazz series to a new level with a live-recorded double CD set featuring the best in Contemporary Jazz, Gospel and Urban music. This effort, both visually and audibly, demonstrates the deep connections between Gospel and Jazz. Its revised renditions of commonly known tunes socially connect with the listener on a horizontal level that seeks to usher in a vertical spiritual relationship. Features guest appearances from George Duke, Lalah hathaway, Doc Powell and others.
12 years after saxophonist and composer Kirk Whalum issued the first The Gospel According to Jazz recording comes its third chapter. Recorded live at Reid Temple in Glenn Dale, MD, the set contains a stellar backing band that includes Reginald Veal on upright bass, organist Jerry Peters, percussionist Lenny Castro, trumpeter Aaron Broadus, and additional horns, vocals, and backing vocals. As is customary for these recordings, there are also a number of special guests including George Duke, Lalah Hathaway, Doc Powell, John Stoddart, and a slew of family members including sons, uncles, cousins, and nephews. The double-disc soundtrack contains the entire concert.
Disc one begins with Whalum playing solo on “Call to Worship,” a Coltrane-esque recitation of hymns in modal fashion. Things get funkier on the New Orleans-inspired funky yet straight-ahead jazz in Whalum’s original “Fit to Battle,” before moving toward Latin-tinged jazz on “Ananias and Sapphira.” Hathaway and Stoddart do a lovely job on the Nat Adderley-Luther Vandross tune “Make Me a Believer"; they are stellar on “He’s Been Just That Good,” and Stoddardt shines on his original “If You Ever Need Me,” with inventive and elegant scat singing. Duke’s piano is gorgeously lyrical on “Because You Loved Me.” Disc two contains the funky soul-jazz of “Jesus Africa Jesus,” with its faux reggae rhythm section underscoring Whalum's soprano before it becomes a rap tune. Hathaway makes a return appearance on his “It’s What I Do,” and on a very contemporary gospel reading of “The Thrill Is Gone” that keeps B.B. King's blues feel intact. One of the two bonus tracks features Bishop T.D. Jakes and his wife Serita on “You Are Everything,” that echoes Barry White's amorous recitations -- only quite wholesomely -- to close it out. Ultimately, this is a set that appeals more to Whalum’s gospel fans than to his jazz fans, but that has nothing whatsoever to do with the quality of what’s here. All the musical performances are top-notch and walk his wonderful trademark line between straight-ahead and contemporary jazz, urban gospel and R&B. This the finest chapter in the series yet. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide |
