HERB ALPERT & LANI HALL - I FEEL YOU

Herb Alpert and Grammy award winning singer Lani Hall have added several West Coast dates to their "I Feel You" Tour which began reently at the Birchmere Theatre in Alexandria, Virginia.  New dates include stops in Seattle, San Francisco, Santa Monica and Costa Mesa, California.  The tour coincides with the release of their critically acclaimed I Feel You CD on Concord Jazz. "The couple's first studio album in 10 years is a gorgeous collection of re-imagined classics with a couple of Beatles tunes mixed in for good measure.  Both the trumpet legend and acclaimed vocalist, who've been married since 1973, are in fine form as they breathe fresh life into these songs through improvisation and new arrangements," raved USA TODAY in their three and a half star (*** 1/2) review. "Hall's smoky, emotional voice is perfectly suited to the material, especially 'Cast Your Fate to the Wind' and Tijuana Brass smash 'What Now My Love' and Alpert still blows a mean, seductively smooth horn," commented the Boston Herald. Herb and Lani's welcome return to the studio had a first week marked by a #3 debut on the Current Contemporary Jazz chart (according to Nielsen SoundScan) and a major profile on CBS Sunday Morning.
