O’s Notes: This collection of Norman’s smooth guitar combined with sultry R&B vocals from Chante Moore, Miki Howard, Michael McDonald and newcomer Debbie Nova makes Just Chillin’ a balanced session. Brown mixes up-tempo, relaxed jams, ballads and even a taste of Caribbean on “Dancing In The Sun”. This variety combined with bubbly jazz guitar adds up to the winning formula that will keep him among the best in contemporary jazz.
