iTunes Music Review - Every Day: The Best of the Verve Years
Every Day: The Best of the Verve Years
- Joe Williams
- Reviewed by Ricky Spero
- Joe Williams was Figure Two in my three-man education in singing. A brilliant vocalist, scatter, and interpreter of jazz and blues, Williams produces music that's totally unique, yet sounds so effortless that it's easy to mistake for schmaltz. While I dig his early recordings (largely made with the Basie Band), his later cuts have a looseness and flexibility that grabs my ear. In the later years, Williams took to touring with a world-class quartet (piano, guitar, drum and bass) that matches any group I've heard in tightness and groove. Look into "Every Night," "Sometimes I'm Happy," "Jimmy's Blues," or "I Want a Little Girl" for Williams at his best. Listen to how he casually drags phrases ahead of their usual place, rewrites melodies, or adjusts rhythms. It's like Sinatra, only slicker, hipper, harder, better.
