Renaissance
CD (Item 627973) Concord, 2012 — Condition: New Copy
Excellent work from Marcus Miller – the kind of soul-drenched, bass-led set that's made him a favorite for years! There's a tightness here that almost takes us back to the feel of a Stanley Clarke set from the 70s – a right on the money groove you'll hear right from the start – with more than enough bite in the basslines, and a sound that's never too smooth to make the album lose its groove. The set features guest work from Sean Jones on trumpet – plus a bit of vocals from Dr John, Gretchen Parlatto, and Ruben Blades – but overall, Miller's clearly the star attraction here, as you'll hear on cuts that include "Detroit", "Redemption", "Slippin Into Darkness", "Jekyll & Hude", "Revelation", and a great cover of Weldon Irvine's "Mr Clean". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
