Customer Reviews
bold, brassy and brilliant
Loving this recording by Ms. Collins. Absolutely fabulous production value, groovy tunes and excellent playing by all involved. I loved the journey taken throughout the program from the boisterous and brassy Blue Patrol, to the touching August Won. Lots here for a variety listeners, whether at a party, out for a jog or at home for the night. Collins' effort is a 21st century take on what Herb Alpert and Chuck Mangione began in the 60's and 70's and this woman is operating at a very HIGH level. If any of that sounds appealing, I'm sure you'll enjoy this recording as much as I do!
Beautiful tone from a beautiful artist
Smooth modern jazz with pop sensibility and even a bit of big band. Kiku produces a very warm, dark and smokey tone out of her instrument and combines flugelhorn and trombone with her trumpet playing as well. This CD is one that you won't want to remove from your player. It puts you in a good mood each time you listen to it. Kiku is a force to be reckoned with and also very easy on the eyes. Run, don't walk to purchase this one.
2 Thumbs up for Red Light!
A Star is born and her name is Kiku Collins. Following up on her first album she tops her newest one with a much more classier tone, playful melody lines as well as tricky & simple arrangements. The choice of original songs is wise and it's put all well in order.
You find yourself listening to an album and not skipping from song to song looking for a hook. EVERY song has one.
For example:
Opener "Blue Patrol" reminds of a classy Miles medium tempo classic that could have been written for a "Ben Hur" remake.
Collins' melodies are simple yet clever. The minute you think you figured out the melodyline she leads her beautiful tone into fresh new territory that surprises.
