O’s Notes: Antoinette Montague has a jovial voice that she puts to a good cause while providing solid entertainment. She sings a collection of twelve pop and gospel classics centered on World Peace in the Key of Jazz. The band is aligned with the theme jazzing things up along the way. “Hard Times” includes strong contributions from bassist Paul Beaudry and drummer Winard Harper. Vibraphonist Jay Hoggard and pianist Danny Mixon take the spotlight on “How I Got Over”. Those are just a couple of examples as there is something for everybody here as Antoinette makes it easy to sing along.
