Review from Jeff Golub, award winning jazz guitarist:
“SMOOTH JAZZ, WITH FUNK & LATIN INFLUENCES, BLENDED WITH
SULTRY R&B VOCALS AND INSPIRED IMPROVISATION. CHECK IT OUT!”
Listen to the mellow trumpet / fluglehorn playing of, Matt Jordan,
blended with the sultry voice of KELLI
SAE. Kelli has made a name for herself with well known recording
artists including COUNT BASIC, INCOGNITO, & PHILIPPE SAISSE. She
is in daily radio rotation, and records her own solo CD’s. Matt
also features guitarist, GIL
PARRIS, (David Sanbom, Blood Sweat & Tears, Doc. John, his
own band & others.)
Enjoy the ecletic sounds, from sultry ballads with thought provoking
lyrics, to exciting yet smooth rhythmic originals. Flawless mixes,
feature Len Post (keyboards & engineer), Kip Sophos (bass),
Richie Gonzalez (percussions), Bill Pernice (piano), and guest stars,
THE HARRIS BROTHERS, (Jeff Golub, Tower Of Power, B.B. King, Average
White Band) and other surprise legendary performers. The CD’s
title track is the remarkable cover tune of Peabo Bryson’s,
“Let The Feeling Flow,” whose name captures the deep
feeling and emotion which inspired each of the 12 songs.
How this CD was created...
Matt Jordan first did considerable research, giving serious thought
to the market he was seeking. He decided on smooth jazz, which has
blossomed all over the country.
He then wrote original melodies to twelve songs. He brought six of
them, one at a time, in cassette and music form to friends Robert
Lustgarten and Wayne Baratta who helped add chords and lyrics.
Matt had a sound in mind he was going for, and visited several
studios. When he visited Len Post, at Hickory Street studio, Len
played some of his material, and Matt instantly loved the sound. He
also loved five songs Len co-wrote with Don Harris, former Tower of
Power trumpet player, and Matt worked out a co-publishing agreement
with them. He used four of the songs, and added one song from Gregg
Hollister, original singer I bass player in Matt
Jordan Futurband with Wells Kelly, “Orleans.”
Matt looked at numerous cover songs to select one. The CD’s
title track is the remarkable cover tune of Peabo Bryson’s,
“Let the Feeling Flow,” whose name captures the feeling and
emotion which inspired each of the twelve songs.
Matt then spent two weeks listening to over fifty successful
recording artists. He selected Kelli Sae, who he felt was perfect for
the mellow, smooth, sultry sound he was going for. He then worked six
months with the arrangers, studio, engineer, other musicians, vocals,
several weeks of mixing, graphics, etc, seeking perfection. He wanted
to be a part of all that had to be done to transfer that sound he had
in mind, to a sound that is now on a master.
