Review by Juan De La Cruz Varela
The Very Best Of Norman Connors is a must-have album for any jazz and R&B lover. Norman Connors, a renowned drummer, and composer, has compiled his finest work in this album, spanning over two decades of his career. The album features some of his biggest hits, including "You Are My Starship," "Valentine Love," and "Take It to the Limit."
The album is a testament to Connors' versatility as a musician. He seamlessly blends soulful R&B with smooth jazz, creating a sound that is both mellow and groovy. His unique style of drumming is evident in every track, adding a layer of depth to the music.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Betcha by Golly Wow," a soulful rendition of The Stylistics' classic hit. The track features vocals by the legendary Phyllis Hyman, who delivers a stunning performance. Another highlight is "This is Your Life," a funky track with a catchy chorus that is sure to get listeners dancing.
The album also features collaborations with other notable artists, such as Michael Henderson, Jean Carne, and Adaritha. These collaborations add a different dimension to the album, showcasing Connors' ability to work with other artists and create something truly special.
