O’s Notes: Singer, songwriter Sidney Jacobs could be known in R&B circles as The Voice with his buttery, rich baritone and slick falsetto. The curious title outlines a mix of originals, jazz, and popular songs for his second outing as a leader. There’s a hard R&B vibe on “Facts” followed by Jacobs singing and scatting with jovial passion on “Weave The Tail” and “Been So Long”. These are just a few of the gems on a soulful set. “If I Were Your Woman” showcases Sidney as a romantic crooner, continuing his ascent on the contemporary jazz scene.
