O’s Notes: Take soulful vocals from Terry Stanton, add warm sax from Art Porter, electric guitar courtesy of Martin McClain combined with the funky beats of bassist Nathaniel Phillips, producer Jeff Lorber and guest artist Chris Botti (t) and you have a winner! It is almost as if we stepped back a few decades when urban music wasn’t centered on killing and obscene sexual lyrics. Yes, this is cool for the entire family.
