Tony Minvielle has compiled a really good CD featuring 12 contemporary underground Jazzy Soul and Jazz/Bossa cuts. On the Soulier side Personal Touch ‘ Distance can be sweet’ and Collective Peace ‘Let the music play’ impress. Liz Elensky ‘Distractions’ is a lovely vocal fusion track, Lauren Desberg ft Gretchen Parlato ‘You go to my head’. and Guida De Palma ft Leon Ware ‘A Seed in you’ are really nice sultry vocal Jazz.. Pat Van Dyke ‘ Two Sides’ and Carl Hudson ‘Sea Snake’ are good instrumentals. Nice unusual selections.
