My Colors (1996)

How appropriate that Roger Smith chose to lead his relentlessly energetic, try-to-sit-still extravaganza My Colors with a slamming cover of George Duke's "Miss Wiggle," because the keyboardist perfectly captures all the jazz/funk blessings of Duke, along with a few of the pitfalls which tarnish many of the legend's recent projects.

How appropriate that Roger Smith chose to lead his relentlessly energetic, try-to-sit-still extravaganza My Colors with a slamming cover of George Duke's "Miss Wiggle," because the keyboardist perfectly captures all the jazz/funk blessings of Duke, along with a few of the pitfalls which tarnish many of the legend's recent projects. The first half of his tasty excursion in groove is a house music dance party with jazz chops even bebop purists can appreciate. Michael Paulo adds a graceful touch to a smooth cover of Jam & Lewis' "Can You Stand the Rain."

An exciting discovery. ~ Jonathan Widran, Rovi Read Less
