| | Queen Latifah Trav'Lin' Light CD Queen Latifah Discography of CDs
 (5 Customer Reviews)
There has been a long line of MCs to try their hand at singing their own hooks (Nas, Ghostface, Ol' Dirty, 50 Cent, etc.) but none of them (with the exception of maybe Missy Elliott) have taken their voice seriously--it's always been a tongue-in-cheek thing. Latifah was the first rapper to do it well. After NATURE OF A SISTA, the Queen had critics taken aback upon hearing her vocals on tracks such as "Give Me Your Love" and "Just Another Day?"--who can forget that cut's seamless transition from sweet harmonizing to rugged street flow?
On TRAV'LIN' LIGHT, the follow-up to THE DANA OWENS ALBUM, Latifah expands her vocal repertoire, covering a variety of jazz standards, soul classics, and guilty pop pleasures made famous by the likes of Nina Simone, the Pointer Sisters, Etta James, Antonio Carlos Jobim, and 10cc. TRAV'LIN' LIGHT features guest work from Christian McBride, George Duke, Joe Sample, and Stevie Wonder, who offers up his trademark harmonica on "Georgia Rose."JazzTimes (p.113) - "TRAV'LIN LIGHT is an estimable exercise in showmanship, shaped by a well-seasoned pro..."

THE VERY BEST OF includes a 46-page booklet with pictures and track information.
"Hole In The World" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
This 1994 greatest hits package (released in anticipation of the band's wildly successful reunion tour and album) supplants THEIR GREATEST HITS 1971-1975. It adds seven songs, but unfortunately deletes "Already Gone," one of their best rockers.
What's most interesting about THE VERY BEST OF THE EAGLES - apart from the presence of obviously classic songs like "Take It Easy" and "Hotel California" - is that it demonstrates that the band's esthetic was fully formed from day one. Despite the fact that the songs here span nearly a decade, listening to them back to back you could almost believe they were the product of one marathon recording session.
The Eagles' founders Don Henley and Glenn Frey were ...

THE DANA OWENS ALBUM is Queen Latifah's first non-rap vocal album.
Throughout a career that started in the early days of hip-hop, Queen Latifah has consistently proven herself a woman of kaleidoscopic talents. The ultimate evidence of her versatility came in 2002, when she took on the role of "Mama" Morton in the film version of the musical CHICAGO, displaying acting chops polished enough to earn her an Academy Award nomination. In that movie, Queen Latifah also revealed an exquisite and powerful ...

Trav'Lin' Light album
$16.49
When explaining guitarist Matt Richards' solo guitar style, the most often-mentioned word jazz will be combined with classical, Spanish, modern acoustic, New Age – in fact, each term describes a different aspect of Matt's musical identity.Growing up in the culturally fertile cross-currents of the 1960s, Matt's musical pathway begins with the mix of folk, rock and psychedelic music that defined that decade. Eventually drawn into the electronic-laden jazz-rock of the 1970s, Matt began developing the technically advanced skill and musical abilities demanded by those styles. As his talent grew, Matt was drawn into straight-ahead jazz, classical and world music.As a soloist, Matt has been featured in the film Smoke And Mirrors and on the Philadelphia-produced television series Puerto Rican Panorama. He has played at the CoreStates and Mellon Jazz Festivals, the Naturist Society's Eastern and Midwestern Gatherings, National AIDS Awareness Day, SUNOCO's Welcome America celebrations, the Kimmel Regional Arts Center and numerous clubs and venues. Matt has performed duets with guitarists Larry Coryell, Emiliano Pardo-Tristan and Sam Gorelik, violinist ...

Trav'Lin' Light songs

Jogo's solo, debut CD is HOT AC - a musical painting with Pop, Rock, R & B and Jazz colors. His silky voice feels like soft velvet and is ever so passionate. His piano driven songwriting is very diverse and with an edge. His melodies and sweet arrangements will transport you and guide you throughout an emotionally moving and stimulating, yet very relaxing voyage. There seems to be a surprise waiting for you at every turn. "Wounded" and "Play It As It Lays" are haunting, touching and poignant. "If I Let Myself Go" and “Light In The Window”, the title track, are memorable, reminiscent and enduring. "The Best Part Of My Life" and Who's right, Who's Wrong?" will move you, literally! "Sleeping Princess" is a warm, heartfelt, devout and biographical piece, in memory of a beautilful, gifted and humble legend. Give Jogo a listen, you ...

The late Oliver Nelson had such a successful career as a composer of film and TV music ("Theme From the Six Million Dollar Man") and arranger that it often overshadowed his abilities as a jazz musician. In 1961, Nelson assembled a fantastic small ensemble, including Eric Dolphy, Bill Evans, and Freddie Hubbard, for a session of six original compositions. ...
