专辑简介
Reviewed by: Ryan J. Fleming Reviewed 26 Jun 2004, at June 13th, 2004 Café Promenade The Marriott Inner Harbor Hotel Baltimore, Maryland Sunday June 13th, 2004 would be a day I will soon not forget. On this particular day, I was treated to two of my favorite things: great food and music. Each and every Sunday Baltimore’s radio station, WSMJ 104.3, hosts a Smooth Jazz Brunch, in cooperation with The Café Promenade. What a fulfilling experience for my appetite and for my soul. As the patrons got comfortable in their seats, we were all led to the middle of the restaurant where a lavish buffet was waiting. As you walked down the aisle, your mouth became watery as you gazed upon fresh food items which included: turkey sausage, bacon, eggs, waffles, seafood creole, and omelets made to your liking. Then, it was multi-instrumentalist Norman Evan’s turn. He gave us a few minutes for our food to settle before he began to feed our soul with some intense smooth jazz and R & B. To really appreciate what Norman Evans is all about, you really have to see his live performance. Norman is a one man music machine, effortlessly toggling between the instruments of saxophone and keyboard. He provided a satiable mix of R.B and smooth jazz interpretations that are featured from his albums, Retrospective, Tapestry Sessions, and his newest studio release Twilight. A brilliant marketing tool for Norman Evans, portions of the performance was being broadcasted live on WSMJ. After he warmed up the crowd with his keyboard handiwork, Norman proceeded to pick up his saxophone and do what he does best—establish a connection with the crowd. Many of today’s artists play in a “box”, unbeknownst of their audience, so it was quite refreshing to see that Norman understands and respects the importance of engaging the crowd. More times than none, the one patron that was being engaged by Norman’s sweet sound was a lady, but that did not matter as the whole audience applauded at Norman’s lung capacity for those long, sustained notes. Just when you thought the note would cut off, Norman would hold that sensual note on his saxophone for an additional 20 seconds. Norman was working hard with his labor of love as the show lasted from 12:15PM to 2PM, with very little intermission. What a way to spend your Sunday afternoon. It was a pure delight to attend Norman’s Jazz Brunch, and I strongly encourage you to see his live performance when the opportunity arises.
