We’re In This Love Together - Celebrating Al Jarreau was originally a kickstarter campaign project created by Chris Walker, Jarreau’s protege and friend who spent twenty years traveling the globe with the jazz maestro. First released in 2019, it is now rereleased by evosound. This musical tribute album, co-produced by Chris Walker & Larry Williams, features a stellar line-up of artists who came together to honor the seven-time Grammy winner from the jazz, R&B and gospel worlds; including Arturo Sandoval, Bob James, Dave Koz, David Foster, Gerald Albright, Kirk Whalum, Larry Williams, Marcus Miller, Nathan East, Regina Belle, Rick Braun, Will Downing and among others.
We’re In This Love Together - Celebrating Al Jarreau is performed with admirable attention to detail and respect for the wondrous vocal craft and musicianship of Al Jarreau from open to close. Lifelong fans of Jarreau’s work will take comfort and joy in the expertly delivered homage. Casual listeners will have their ears opened to a priceless musical voyage in the most tasteful and truest way possible. Despite Chris adding his own flavor, the integrity of the music remains intact, creating a fresh take of some of Al’s work.
The span of the collection is well balanced between the tunes that cemented Jarreau’s stature in the pop and R&B mainstream along with the nuggets which centred on his jazz instincts. Some of the songs remarkably blurred those lines. 1980’s “Alonzo,” a Jarreau composition, is one such example, with almost oracular lyrics set to a stream of jazzy rhythms and melodies amidst a soulful atmosphere. Walker’s adaptation captures a similar cross-section of musical influences, tempering warm vocal harmonies with a flute solo by Larry Williams. An entire album with real musicians. Truly an essential for any Jarreau fan.
