WES BERWISE’S ALBUM OF THE MONTH JAHEIM – ANOTHER ROUND CD £15.95
I ’ve been racking my brain trying to find a way of reviewing Jaheim’s fifth album, without mentioning the late great Teddy Pendergrass, but as you can see it’s already happened …. Ever since 31 year old Jaheim debuted with “Ghetto Love” in 2001, combining an astoundingly powerful and soulful voice, with a refusal to forget his ghetto hip hop and R & B roots, he has taken his admirers on a musical rollercoaster ride, with subsequent albums often promising much more than they eventually delivered. The voice has always impressed, but the writing, whilst producing some notable gems, has unfortunately never shown the same consistency. However, almost a decade later “Another Round” is a different story. His voice shows a mature dexterity that many of his contemporaries would die for, often showing the power and forcefulness of Teddy “P” whilst also managing to display the tone and texture of another great, the late Luther Vandross, and the good news is that this time round the quality of the songs does not leave you feeling short changed. Whether you’re into dance, breezy mellow vibes or quiet storm ballads this set really does deliver – consistently. It’s been a long time coming but with “Another Round”, Jaheim fulfils his potential. This one’s definitely one for your collection.
Check out his shows on DAB, www.iamcolourful.com. Fans of Teddy Pendergrass and Teena Marie may like to tune into the special features on these artists scheduled for Tuesday morning (Midnight – 2 a.m) on February 9th.

SOUL 4 INTRODUCING MATTIA CIGALINI - ARRIVING SOON CD £14.95 LP £22.95 (FROM MID MARCH)
Excellent Italian Jazz set that takes its inspiration from 60's Blue Note and cites Cannonball Adderley as a source. The album of three originals and seven re-works is a fine example of contemporary Jazz album. The quintet includes Fabrizio Bosso on trumpet and Andrea Pozza on piano. From the stomping 'Arriving Soon' to 'Destination' with its flowing acoustic bass line. Brilliant covers of 'Bohemia After Dark', Cannonball's catchy 'Sambop' and Victor Feldman's 'New Delhi' keep the Jazz groove running. 'Ciga R Smoke' and the slower 'If You Believe' add a more subtle tone to what is an exceptional album
FABRIZIO BOSSO NEW PROJECT – BLACK SPIRITS JAPANESE CD £32.95
Fabrizio Bosso is the outstanding trumpeter who plays with Nicola Conte and Mario Biondi. His playing owes much to Freddie Hubbard with touches of 60's Donald Byrd and Lee Morgan for good measure. This album includes several covers like Horace Silver's 'Nutville' and a fine understated take on Dizzy's 'Night In Tunisia'. The smooth Bossa of 'Bossando' is another standout as is Freddie's own classic waltz 'Up Jumped Spring'. This set is the work of a master and is a more straight-ahead 60's Jazz workout than his work at Schema, but is a fine tribute to Freddie Hubbard.

This varied Japanese Jazz CD has some truly outstanding tracks. Spacy tracks like 'Autumn Frost' have a subliminal quality. The sparse 'Lilian Mode' is stunning in its simplicity. 'St Vitus Dance' is re-worked in a frenetic form with female lead vocal, whilst 'Brighter Bossa' is a breezer Brazilian groove. 'On The Corner Where You' has strong Jazz dance feel, and 'A Kite' has a 60's Blue Note vibe with Hubbard like lead trumpet.
PRINCE SAMPSON – LIVING IN THE MOMENT CD £12.95
UK guitarist Prince Sampson releases this interesting 12 track CD. Mixing many styles such as Smooth Jazz, Soul and Reggae, this is a unique combination. 'Let The Sunshine Through' is a mellow groover with nice female vocal. Noel McKoy adds his vocal talent to the jaunty 'Real Love'. 'Chill In' adds a nice groove and the jazzy groove 'Culture Shock' flirts with Smooth Jazz , 'Sao Paulo' adds a Brazilian tinge to the smooth groove.
RECOMMENDED NEW SOUL REISSUES AND COMPS - MARCH 2010

Two great albums of harmony group soul recorded for Curtom in 1974 and '75, produced by Leroy Hutson and Rich Tufo. 'Can This Be Real ' is a really good harmony ballad, 'You Bring Out The Best In Me' a mid tempo shuffler and 'Try Love Again' an orchestrated 2 stepper.

VARIOUS ARTISTS – PEOPLES POTENTIAL FAMILY ALBUM CD £12.95

DON CHERRY – HEAR AND NOW CD £9.95
This album from 1976 recorded for Atlantic is surprising. Unlike much of Cherry’s work, this album is not ‘out there’. It is more of a mainstream Jazz Funk album produced by Narada Michael Walden and features a young Marcus Miller and Michael Brecker. The album is renowned for the break ‘Universal Mother’ but try also the Africa tinged groove ‘Karmapa Chenno’ and the mellow ‘California’. The opus ‘Journey Of Milarepa/ Dhanti/ The Ending Of Movement-Liberation’ is an Brazilian/ Airto inspired groove.
