One of the primary architects of the sound that became known as Smooth Jazz, saxophonist Marion Meadows has earned the right after nearly 35 years as a recording artist to claim the title of his latest album, that he’s achieved all his impact and success JUST DOING ME. While that’s traditionally meant simply sticking with the core soprano sound that’s taken him to incredible, adventurous creative heights in the past, the dazzling sonic variety he’s offering on this collection is off the proverbial charts. Keeping his charming melodicism front and center, Meadows has it all – sizzling horn textures over sparkling jazzy piano, immersive urban shuffle rhythms, in the pocket funk, and ambient atmospheres. Produced by legends Paul Brown, Chris ‘Big Dog’ Davis and Wirlie Morris!
