Gregg Kofi Brown ’Together As One’ (Wrasse) CD Reviews
Gregg Kofi Brown spent
two decades as guitarist and singer with Osibisa…..His first solo
album has an extraordinary
cast list. … gently classy African-tinged soul-funk from Des'ree
and Gabrielle, predictably impressive
guitar work from Stanley Jordan and even Afro-
Brazilian percussion from Airto Moreira.
This is a laid-back excursion into well-played jazz-
soul-funk
The Guardian
Fans of slick afro-jazz will find many joyous moments on ‘Together As
One’. In fact music
lovers across the board should at least appreciate its quality. ….on
this solo work he invites
Sting, Roachford, Des’ree, Gabrielle, Billy Cobham (drums) and
Stanley Jordan (guitar),
among others, to lend their silky skills.. Recent single, Lullaby To
An Anxious Child, floats
and grooves with light guitars and fitting vocals from Brown and Sting.
…. with an effortless
soul, it deserves respect.
