I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

Ruby Star Records artist: Jacqui Naylor - Treasures of the Heart - New Release Review

 


I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Treasures of the Heart, by Jacqui Naylor, and I really like it. Opening with Rodgers and Hart's I Didn't Know What Time It Was, and it's got a super complex drum rhythm by Ele Howell. Jacqui Naylor on lead vocal has a lush voice and strong presence, complimented by Art Khu on keys and Richie Goods on bass. This is a super track. Original track, Walk Out In The Sun, really showcases Naylor's soulful style and Khu on piano over brushed snare by Howell and lead bass by Goods. Adding some funk to the mix on Love's Around, excellent bass lines by Goods, strong percussion by Howell and excellent piano improvisation by Khu make this a cool addition to the mix. With world rhythms, Picture Book of You has a really nice feel. Howell really created an interesting weave of rhythm working nicely as a background for Naylor and Khu. Wrapping the release is We'll Shine Through with a lot of R&B / funk feel. Goode on bass and Howell on drums create a strong rhythm really spiced by Khu on piano rhythm and a meaty solo as well. Naylor's vocals are sassy and rich making this an excellent closer.
