Leon Ware - A Kiss In The Sand (2004) [Re-Up]

2004 release from this soul legend whose songs continue to be heard in their original versions and re-invented contemporary versions- from Marvin Gaye, Qunicy Jones and Minnie Riperton to Maxwell, G-Unit and Brandy, to name a few. Blending his jazz and soul roots with the rhythms of Brazil, this collection of songs feature his sensual and soulful vocals along with the talents of Brazilian guitarist Sandro Albert- naming it "R & BOSSA". Lyrically, Ware is a spiritually inspired messenger of love, an optimistic poet who dispenses doses of wisdom along with poignant prayers of oneness. He and Albert dressed the tracks luxuriously with intimate acoustic guitar riffs, classy piano flourishes, cinematic string sounds and Bossa Nova percussion.

R&B singer Leon Ware has a light soothing voice. Backed by a Latin-flavored rhythm section, Ware performs a set of his own original material, some of it co-written with guitarist Sandro Albert. The music features light rhythms, occasional background singers and Ware's expressive but subtle voice almost entirely in the foreground. However none of the individual songs are particularly memorable and the rhythm section, other than Albert, tends to sound quite anonymous. This repetitive and rhythmic set works well as danceable background music but there is no reason to listen closely because nothing unexpected occurs.
