Comment:

In Next Steps, we took a little tour around the globe, but in Deep Cuts we’re coming right back to where it started, with perhaps the sexiest instrument in all of jazz — the sax. Dave Koz leads off with a steamy, sultry, funk-drenched workout in “Saxman,” as he jams with the likes of the late Clarence Clemons, Maceo Parker, and other A-list reed royalty. The former leader of the famed L.A. Express, Tom Scott, nudges his horn into a hip-hop groove laced with urbane urbanity in “Upbeat 90’s.” And just in case you thought it was only the guys leading the charge toward a saxier future, Pamela Williams — a former member of Patti Labelle’s backup band — steps to center stage with “Positive Vibe,” a succulent track reminiscent of the late Grover Washington Jr.
