O’s Notes: One look at the album cover and we knew this would be entertaining! We were surprised by the warmth and sophistication of “The Shadow of Your Smile”. It was actually even better on the bonus take, a practice run that was spontaneous and free-> that’s jazz! KJ continued to delight us with “Let It Go” a jazzy blues number, more of what we expected from the cover shot. It shifted the session in that direction. “Smoke on The Water” and the reggae beats of “Choose Your Weapon” felt good followed by the wholesome pop tune “Help” and then wrapping up with a taste of France with “Chanson Baz Bar”. No. 9 was certainly entertaining, full of unexpected surprises and undoubtedly a winner!
