Personnel: Phil Perry (background vocals); Chris "Big Dog" Davis (various instruments); Rohn Lawrence, Wayne Bruce (guitar); Kim Waters (saxophone); Tim Maia (background vocals).
With his mingling of lower toned vocal sensuality and a gospel-inflected falsetto, the veteran soul singer is one of urban jazz's greatest links to the era when greats like Marvin Gaye and Teddy Pendergrass reigned. After launching his stint on Shanachie mining the wonders of the past with Classic Love Songs and A Mighty Love, Perry at last emerged with a collection with only two covers (spot on, low-key, and lovely spins on "Shower the People" and "Walk on By") and eight solid originals penned by either the singer, his producer Chris "Big Dog" Davis, or a combination of both. From the soothing, retro-soul flavored opener "Desire" through the easy, thumping and playful "Shine on Me" and the gentle and moody "The Shelter of Your Heart," Perry lives up to his mission of fulfilling the gap of traditional R&B stylings in the modern pop marketplace. Though most of these warm, intimate, and easily rhythmic songs cover the joyful side of love and romance, Perry and Davis are infinitely more clever on "Why Why Why," which, with the help of guest vocalist Salena, sets up a fascinating dialogue between a frustrated woman and her defensive lover who insists he loves her despite some suspect treatment. Perry has always been a master at expressing the many facets and complexities of love through his music, and Ready for Love continues his solid commitment to the romantic in everyone. ~ Jonathan Widran Phil Perry Ready For Love Songs | 1. | Desire |

"Each song is a perfect little Japanese candy where you get to eat the wrapper, too..." - Danielle W.Some extras on "LOVE and LOGIC". The CD features a thirteenth bonus track only available on the physical CD. It's called "Drive It." (You can hear the clip at Doug's website under AUDIO) We think you'll want this one. It's a fun funk number that has a video all its own on the way. Think 70s dance party groove with some culturally subversive subtext going on. :-) In addition to the bonus track, there is an exclusive Q&A video included on the disk. Good stuff!Make sure you check out the concept video for "Alright Hold Tight" (track 5) on YouTube. Just type "Doug Mattingly" in the search.And here's some bio right from the website...Composer, lyricist, vocalist, guitarist, keyboardist, bassist - in music, Doug Mattingly leaves nothing uncovered in his quest to discover the sounds and words that touch his listeners. With insightful lyrics and a sound built from a wide variety of styles, this multi-talented musician's unique singing voice and diverse musical background have already gained him a loyal following.His latest full-length CD LOVE and LOGIC draws on his own life experiences and showcases his multi-dimensional ability to play, write and create a sound that reaches a wide variety of listeners. "I don't write music as a cathartic experience. I write about things that I've experienced and the lessons I've learned from them, and by writing about that I can offer someone an insight into their own life. With this new album, I feel like I've really tapped into some strong visuals lyrically. I've also expanded the scope of my themes to where I'm talking about how our lives intersect with the rest of our modern media saturated world and vice versa. The songs "Live" (the CDs first track) and "Give It All Away" (the last track) are perfect bookends for the themes LOVE and LOGIC touches on."In addition to constantly honing his craft as a guitarist and vocalist, Doug is a prolific songwriter, penning from thirty to fifty songs a year. "I write a lot of songs because I'm committed to each album being as good as I can make it. It all starts with great songs. You can't write fifteen songs and expect to have 12 or 13 of them be up to snuff for the CD. I don't believe in filler. I want to take my listener on an emotional and sonic journey from beginning to end. I feel like I owe that to my audience."And while he humorously describes his lyrics as "existential", Doug also describes himself as a "music first kind of songwriter". "We live in a world where everything, not just music, seems to be getting shorter, less detailed, more bottom-lined. I don't want to write or play or produce like that. When you listen to a Doug Mattingly song, I want you to be able to put on the ...
