This ultracool saxman has some of the sexiest moves in smooth jazz and a
dreadlock-based look that drives female genre fans wild. Hes always focused on
passionate, soprano-based tunes to express this sexuality in musical terms, so
its no surprise that one of the best tracks here is the power-passion ballad
Romantica. Hes always been successful at adapting his lyrical sound and melodic
sense to easy funk tunes, and here plays that middle of the road well on tracks
like Deska (dedicated to his new bride Desi) and the soul classic Wishing on a
Star. But because were so familiar with this side of his personality, its always
more fun to hear him fulfill a deeper potential, a bit outside the box. The
ultragrooving, hip, and brassy title track, on which he blends soprano with
tenor and slides over the baritone edges of Matt King, leads us to expect a
slightly more swinging affair, but Sweet Grapes reminds us that Meadows is more
about sensuality and cool soul vibes than the thumpy stuff. Another standout
track that goes beyond his usual boundaries is the jamming R&B/Latin funk tune
Noche Privada, which combines a hefty urban groove and his sweet soprano lines
with the intimate harmonics of Chieli Minuccis gorgeous Spanish guitar. These
outside-the-box efforts have always hinted at a deeper artistry behind Meadows
straightforward approach to R&B-influenced smooth jazz, and he should keep
expanding upon them. Overall, this is one of his most appealing efforts, and a
club every smooth jazz listener will gleefully join.~ Jonathan Widran
