Tuesday Talent: Generous Folk

By -

Lifebeat is an organization that mobilizes the talents and resources of the music industry to raise HIV awareness and to provide support to the AIDS community. Lifebeat has carved out a unique niche by effectively using the power of music to reach young people. Through their Outreach programs, Lifebeat reaches hundreds of thousands of at-risk youth with the message of HIV prevention and education. As a beneficiary of this event we will be helping support their fight against HIV/AIDS in America. King for a Day will be a memorable and moving evening with host, actor/director Matt Walton and the musical direction of James Horan. It is inspired by the music of Carole King, especially “Brother, Brother” from her 1971 album Music. The song was her heartfelt response to Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Goin’ On” and is still relevant today.

Recorded in New York, New York in February 1990. ( Thank You, Singers and Saints Blog ) Personnel: Abbey Lincoln (vocals); Jackie McLean (alto saxophone); Clark Terry (trumpet); Alain Jean-Marie (piano); Charlie Haden (bass); Billy Higgins (drums). "Have we been waiting for something like this since Billie, then Dinah passed on--i.e. groovy, in-the-tradition jazz singing that actually means something? Heir apparent Betty Carter is on an ego trip, Cassandra Wilson is too arty... and so on. Abbey Lincoln's trip is something else again (perhaps Parisian) as she poignantly introduces "How High The Moon" in broken French and triumphantly ends the set with Francis Lai's "Live For Life." In between, Lincoln contributes good original lyrics from the point of view of a still-feminine quasi-bag lady--"social secretary" she calls it--an adept witness to hard times past and present. Lincoln gets excellent arrangements from Ron Carter and accompaniment fro
