Jonathan Butler - Introducing Jonathan Butler
Introducing Jonathan Butler By Jonathan Butler Very Good Condition His most ambitious, unpredictable, and musically satisfying album. Jonathan Butler at this time was an unheralded expatriate South African who did more acoustic guitar playing than singing, and hadn't yet become an Urban Contemporary hero. His vocals weren't as polished or heavily produced, and his compositions were looser, more animated, and less calculating. A Review: One of Jonathan's greatest cds. This really was before the R & B influence on him and so if you are looking for that South African jazz bias you will find it on this cd. Personally for contemporary jazz I prefer what we call songs without words though I do not mind the old stuff from Louis Armstrong. My favorite song on this cd is track # 7 "Thinking of you" which I can play for 365 days without getting bored. This is a cd that has stood the test of time and reminds me how the djs on Zambian radio would play it almost everyday. Those were days when
