O’s Notes: Contemporary jazz saxophonist, Gerald Albright is one of the most soulful players on the jazz scene today. Listen to “What You See Is What You Get” to get a feel of the passion he breathes through his horn. Sax for Stax is eleven covers of classic Stax R&B hits. Among the best are “W. C. Handy Hop”, “Never Can Say Goodbye” with Will Downing, “Memphis Passion” and “Respect Yourself” featuring Ledisi singing. This is a great way to celebrate yesterday’s hits.
