There is nothing more relaxing then spending a nice warm summer evening under the moonlight at the Hollywood Bowl.
That's exactly what Mother and I did last evening. We truly enjoyed listening to some smooth jazz and dining under the stars. We popped into Whole Foods Beverly Hills http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/stores/beverlyhills/ and picked up quite a few yummy items to nosh on.
Mother loves the group Fourplay.http://www.fourplayjazz.com/.
She remembers Larry Carlton from the group the Crusaders, back in 1971. Larry Carlton, Bob James, Nathan East and the incomparable Harvey Mason were amazing! They had the audience in an uproar with their methodology/style of solo performances. At one point during their performance, the froze in time. Then, after a minute or so, they hopped right back into the swing of things - on beat, I mean, they were messing just messing with our minds! After 30 seconds everyone in the audience just started screaming! Fourplay rocked the house! I would recommend that you all go out and purchase their latest CD. This year they were nominated for a Grammy for the song, "Fortune Teller".
Boney James http://www.boneyjames.com/ is such a joy to watch. He has such a good vibe with the audience. His performance was excellent. His new CD is right on target. He said that he wanted to make sounds that people would want to "make out" to. Yes, Boney, you did it!
Boney did an all instrumental version of The Stylistics' "Stop, Look,(Listen to Your Heart). It was beautifully performed. Then Boney went on to do Barry White's, " I'm Going To Love You Just A Little Bit More" - oh it was done so eloquently. Boney took it to another level by "Boney-ising" Stevie Wonder's " Send One Your Love". It 's the title of his new CD. Go get it - it's a winner!
Thanks Boney James and Fourplay for a lovely evening under the stars at the Hollywood Bowl...http://www.hollywoodbowl.com/
