Music for the mind and soulby Jay Scott
|
If you’re looking for blues, a bittersweet blues sound with a touch of sass and a dash of contemporary life, then you’re looking for Jay Scott. After a few turns with assembled bands, Jay takes it out solo and his experience, and experiences, are shared with a heartfelt pathos and a sensitivity to the predicaments we share in life. “Sometimes” is a stand out song for the simplicity of its tune and lyrics. But beneath the simplicity of the lyrics is a deep sense of sincere passion: “Beggars they cheat and Cheaters they lie and sometimes your Lover says goodbye.” Hey, it stinks but it’s true. It is necessary to hear Jay sing it, in is his touch below tenor, teetering on gravely, voice. Jay takes it up tempo with “Deliver” and “This Voice.” “Deliver” is a funky club sound blues tune and you can feel yourself moving to the solid beat but you know somebody is gonna be done wrong…again. “This Voice” takes the beat up another notch and Jay cuts loose with a hard, forceful vocal that’s telling someone he ain’t takin’ it anymore. “Good Fight” is a great close to this disc: a simple acoustic tune that speaks to us all. We all have our gray days and, though we sometimes feel put upon by life’s demands, we pull it together and keep it together for ourselves and those we care about.
Take a little time and enjoy Jay Scott and maybe in his reflections you will see reflections of yourself. See yourself and maybe a few of those thoughtful times may come to mind. And maybe a few smiles will come from your reflections on your bittersweet times. |
