Doug Ramsey on Jazz and other matters...

CD: Kristin Korb

KorbMeantime.jpgKristin Korb, In The Meantime (KK). In the nature of things, attention will go to Korb’s vocals and her glamorous makeover illustrated in the cover shots. Serious listeners will also be drawn to her bass playing. She accompanies herself as she sings with pianist Llew Matthews, saxophonist Bob Sheppard, guitarist Larry Koonse, drummer Steve Barnes and vibist Nick Mancini. She solos impressively on “Ain’t Misbehavin’,” adapts James Brown’s “I Feel Good” to introduce Bob Dorough’s “Better Than Anything,” finds joy in “I Got It Bad” and introduces her intriguing ballad “If I Am Ever Yours.”
