One of Joe Bonamassa’s primary influences was Eric Clapton, so the idea behind Royal Tea makes some sense: he spends the 2020 album saluting British blues. This may seem like a distinction without a difference, since Bonamassa has never shied away from Zeppelin nods on his albums, but Royal Tea does indeed sound different than his other studio albums.

Grover Washington, Jr.’s fatal 1999 heart attack cut a successful 30-year recording career tragically short. Washington’s legacy was his ability to combine jazz and pop by tracing their common roots in R&B and soul music. He found fans among the younger wave of jazz listeners, who were attracted to the sounds of what became known as “smooth jazz.” Continue reading “Grover Washington, Jr. – Prime Cuts – The Columbia Years 1987-1999 (1999) [2001, Japan Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

Eagles appeared to be finished after the 2016 death of Glenn Frey — Don Henley said some words to that effect that year — but in 2017, Henley, Joe Walsh, and Timothy B. Schmit revived the band with Vince Gill and Glenn’s son Deacon taking Glenn’s place. After playing a pair of festivals in 2017, the group went on tour in 2018, a jaunt that included a three-night stop at the Forum in Los Angeles.

Diana Krall reunited with Tommy LiPuma, the producer who worked with her for the first decade-and-a-half of her career, for Turn Up The Quiet, a 2017 album that found the pianist returning to the Great American Songbook interpretations that made her name. LiPuma died just before the release of Turn Up the Quiet, prompting Krall to fashion a quasi-tribute to her collaborator from the album’s leftovers.

Letter to You comes quickly on the heels of Western Stars, a long-gestating 2019 immersion into the lush, progressive country vistas of the early 1970s, but in a sense, it’s a true sequel to Bruce Springsteen’s 2016 memoir Born to Run and its 2017 stage companion Springsteen on Broadway. It’s an album where Springsteen reckons with the weight of the past, how its ghosts are still readily apparent in the present, an album where the veteran singer/songwriter is keenly aware he has more road in his rearview mirror than he does on the highway ahead of him.
