At the time, Body Heat was a breathtaking leap for Quincy Jones, right into the
very heart of mainstream commercial soul -- and it turned out to be very
lucrative, rising to number six on the pop album charts. Jazz per se has been
left far behind but the same musical sensibility, the same brilliant production
skills, and the same knack for what will appeal to a wider audience are still at
work, and the result is a surprisingly pleasing album. Amazingly, Jones still
draws a constellation of jazz stars into his studio bands (Herbie Hancock, Frank
Rosolino, Hubert Laws, Jerome Richardson, Grady Tate, Bob James), plus soul
names like Billy Preston, Bernard Purdie and the soon-to-be-ubiquitous guitarist
Wah Wah Watson. The emphasis, though, is first on the honeyed soul vocals from a
variety of newcomers, and second on the funky grooves laced with the buzz of
now-prized analogue synthesizers and wah-wah guitars. There is one reminder of
Jones big-band days, a busy electronic retro-fitting of his classic chart of
Benny Golsons Along Came Betty, where one can hear Laws blow at some length.
Otherwise, to paraphrase Jones himself, if you check your jazz boots at the
door, you might enjoy this.
