There are artists who so much sink into the soul of a large number of music lovers around the world, that from this it becomes even a little uncomfortable. Today, instead of the regular jazz collections - which I just can not pull together, we have to evaluate a new creation from one of the best jazz trumpeters of our time, discussed today will be about Johnny Britt and his tribute to the great king RnB/Soul music by Marvin Gaye.

Let's start with an explanation of the essence of the plate, I have been looking for clarification why the work is called 'Marvin Meets Miles', because it musically is just about the best compositions by Marvin, and here Miles Davis? The only sensible idea came to me suddenly - by Britt plays the trumpet, as well as Davis and I want to believe that this kind of allegory - when Johnny Britt (he himself puts into place Miles Davis) got acquainted with the work of Marvin Gaye. Well, I am not against such an approach, it will be very interesting to listen to the interpretation of the actor that he was able to bring to the already jammed into holes of the composition, not to be confused with bored.

The first thing that comes to mind when listening to Marvin several classic tracks - so should sound Gaye in 2016, the year when he was alive and released remastering the record, I would not have refused such jazz sound! This fact once again proves how great was the music of the King, no matter how many different remix/tribute/cover songs, we did not listen, we always learn classical notes, which can not bring change, but this is not necessary, because these compositions are beautiful! All that is needed - is to breathe into them a 'fresh' sound, use the latest tools to write a little more jazz arrangements - here it is a recipe plate/tribute the success of this artist. In my opinion Britt did everything so beautiful and the best of what I am pleased to add to your playlist, God knows what the interpretation of the account of the great hits of the past. I also think that Johnny did an excellent voice work, not on your nelly not infringed the rights of the original, only introduced to the work of his musical melancholy, by the world of music, which we unfortunately have lost and are unlikely to ever be repeated.

Let's go back to the first line of my little review and think about what to us is Marvin Gaye, it seems to me that many of us agree that it was a legend of music that never dies, his work underwent a huge test of time. It is to this work, we all go back to come up with something new, be it artists, listeners or musicians - they all remember and honor presented by the artist. I would recommend to all, without exception, to hear this work, because it is so real music should sound, and the Jazz culture lover will be pleasantly surprised by the elegant jazz sound.

What is it like: Marvin Gaye
I liked: Marvin Meets Miles, Inner City Blues, Trouble Man, You Sure Love To Ball, Let's Get It On, What's Goin 'On, I Want You, You Sure Love To Ball (Ft Boney James.) (Remix), Marvin Meets Miles (Remix)
