With an elegant piano style and a smooth voice that made him sound
a little bit like a gruffer Nat King Cole, Charles Brown's
jazz-tinged blues is the perfect music for a late-night wind-down.
Unfortunately, as this disc of late sides cut for Aladdin Records
shows, much of his material worked from the same template, an
unhurried tempo that, although effective in small doses, just sort
of blends together over the long haul, so much so that when the
midtempo "Gee!" hits here at the middle of the set, it almost feels
like speed metal. Still, this is a worthwhile compilation, because
what Brown did well, he did very well, and underneath everything
was that wonderful, jazzy piano style, which was central to the
sound of West Coast blues. ~ Steve Leggett
