I just bought "My Abstract Heart" and "Colors" and I have some thoughts I'd like comments on:
1. The albums seem to start strong then kinda fade away.
2. Why sooooooo much harmon mute?
3. In many ways, his trumpet playing is stronger than in the 1960's.
4. The "Look of Love" didn't have to be 6min. & 34sec. long.
5. Instead of "Slow Train", how about a "Fast Train".
6. I think these CDzz are more creative than a lot of Rick Braun stuff.
7. I don't understand his art but it does make for attractive CD covers.
8. I'd still like to hear an Alpert CD with A&M alumni.
9. Needs to do more covers.
10. Who am I to talk, the A&R company TAXI has been frying my material.
Later............Jay
