Anymore.” Other songs include: "I Love My Friend," "All Over Me," "Easy Look," "Road Song." "She Called Me Baby," "Since I Fell For You," "My Elusive Dreams," "America, The Beautiful," and others.
You might
remember Cool Uncle from their latest track they debuted recently featuring
Jessie Ware. Well, the duo—made up of R&B legend (and Dilla-sample
mainstay) Bobby Caldwell and Grammy award winning producer Jack Splash—is back
with a brand new track. Titled "Breaking Up," the song finds the duo
diving deeper into their melting pot of smooth blues and R&B as the track's
soulful vocals pull you into the eye of the track featuring legendary
soulstress Deniece Williams (of "Lets Hear It For The Boy" fame) and
Florida's very own Eric Biddines. Look for "Breaking Up" to be
featured on the duo's self-titled album Cool Uncle out next month featuring
Mayer Hawthorne, Cee-Lo Green, JD8 and more.
A trio set
from the mighty Stanley Cowell – yet like so many of his other albums in the
format, a record that's got way more to offer than usual! Stanley isn't content
to just rework standards with a familiar lineup – and instead really shifts
things around a lot, to create the kind of complexity we've always found in his
music – and which continues to make Cowell's trio sets some of the best on the
Steeplechase label in the past decade or so! The group features Billy Drummond
on drums and Jay Anderson on bass – but it's clear from the conception that
Stanley's the main man at the helm, an incredibly well-versed player who's able
to shift easily between mood and style throughout. Titles include a surprising
10 minute "Xmas Suite" – which includes a few Cowell original Holiday
tracks – plus the originals "Reminiscent", "Sweet Song",
"Midnight Diversion", "Re-Confirmed", and "Hear With
Me" – which features some especially nice kalimba work from Stanley! ~ Dusty Groove
