CD REVIEWS:

The Eric Byrd Trio: Brother Ray Band

Michael Steinman, Cadence Magazine

From the opening “Let the Good Times Roll,” where Byrd has the enthusiastic backing and brief solos of the four horn players, his desire to celebrate Charles is clear. The horn parts are well-executed, the rhythm playing spirited. He is someone to watch!!

Michael Gladstone, All About Jazz

Byrd has several things working for him. His trio is augmented by four horns in order to duplicate Charles’ classic Atlantic sound during the 1950s; and Byrd, himself, provides the arrangements that are an essential part of this album. Beginning with the classic Theard/Moore tune, “Let the Good Times Roll,” which first became a signatory tune for Louis Jordan and then in 1960 for Charles, Byrd uses it as a springboard to establish the rollicking groove, and to introduce the horns by having each take a brief solo. Tenor saxophonist Paul Carr, signaled out on his own Musically Yours (PCJE, 2008), provides a wonderfully distilled solo. In addition, trumpeter Brad Clements, altoist Lyle Link and bari saxman Chris Watling do more than a fair job of conjuring up the spirit of David “Fathead” Newman, Hank Crawford, Marcus Belgrave and Leroy Cooper. Link’s simpatico flute work on a few tunes is strongly redolent of “Fathead..” As a pianist, Byrd is quite effective in this setting. On the mid-tempo “Them That Got,” from the Charles songbook, and Alfred’s “I’ve Got News for You,” Byrd nails the blues accompaniment, giving the impression that Junior Mance or Ray Bryant had sneaked into the studio. As a vocalist, Byrd is an entirely different matter. While Maceo Parker emulates Ray Charles to a tee, Byrd is not an impressionist. His vocal range is naturally higher and his delivery is that of a sweet albeit very soulful vocalist. Yet when he sings Titus Turner’s “Get on the Right Track Baby,” a vintage mid-1950s Charles staple (and one that has rarely been included on Charles tributes), his vocal is perfect for the setting. On other tunes like Joe Greene’s “Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying” and Warfield/Williams’ “Baby Won’t You Please Come Home,” the vocal is effective but in no way specifically linked to any Ray Charles version. For the classic Johnny Mercer song, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” Byrd’s duet with Lea Gilmore misses the sugar and vinegar style of Betty Carter and Ray Charles, though on any other album, it would be fine. Gilmore is also featured on the lesser-known “Watch Them Dogs,” a full-tilt Charles presentation.

Brad Walseth, Jazz Chicago

Fellow trio members Bhagwan Khalsa on acoustic bass and Alphonso Young, Jr. on drums provide solid and exemplary support, while a four piece horn section augments several selections. Alto saxophonist Lyle Link also adds some tasty flute on the Joe Greene-penned “Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying” (not to be confused with the Gerry and the Pacemakers’ ’60s hit of the same name), while guitarist Frank McCreary guests on ”Baby Won’t You Please Come Home,” which also features a nice bass solo by Khalsa.  Meanwhile, vocalist Lea Gilmore is a nice foil to Byrd on Frank Loesser’s “Baby it’s Cold Outside” and takes center stage on the delightful “Watch Them Dogs.” Byrd’s vocals are lighter and less world-worn than the original Brother Ray, but his smooth singing pleases, as does his Charles-influenced piano playing. Fans of Ray Charles will enjoy hearing a bit different take on the old numbers, while new listeners may be tempted to learn more about the “Genius of Soul.” Byrd quotes the biblical passage, Philippians 4:13: “I can do all things through Him who strengthens me,” and there is a gospel feel running through this recording (as it ran through Ray Charles’ work too), as well as a confidence that comes from an artist at peace with himself. Byrd’s vocals are lighter and less world-worn than the original Brother Ray, but his smooth singing pleases, as does his Charles influenced piano playing.

George Fendel, Jazzscene Magazine

Inspired as a youngster by Ray Charles, for this recording, Eric Byrd chose to concentrate primarily on lesser known RC tunes. So here we have a soulful voice, but one very unlike that of his idol, playing bluesy, soul-drenched piano and singing such winners as “Let The Good Times Roll,” “I’ve Got News For You,” “Come Rain Or Come Shine,” “Baby It’s Cold Outside,” “Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying” and “You Don’t Know Me,” among others. On several of the tunes, Byrd has written some earthy, muscular arrangements for trumpet, tenor, alto and baritone saxophones. All in all, this is a nice tribute to Ray Charles, a true crossover artist who had a legit following in jazz, soul, pop and even country-western. His fans will enjoy the fact that Byrd doesn’t try to be Ray, but instead offers a sincere, well conceived tribute.

Calandra, Music Reviewer Magazine

Weighing in at a hefty 46 minutes and 51 seconds, Eric Byrd and his trio (plus 4 horns) come out swinging on their latest release. On Track 1 Byrd and his band mates strut their stuff as they boldly swing with a confident and brassy rendition of Let the Good Times Roll. The song begins with a perfect blending of drums, horns and piano. Byrd and his band mates, Alphonso Young Jr. (drums) and Bhagwan Khalsa (acoustic bass), along with Brad Clements (trumpet), Lyle Link (Alto sax), Paul Carr (Tenor sax) and Chris Watling (Baritone), assert themselves as credible jazz musicians, and let the good times roll. Though Byrd’s vocals on the opening track carry the song well enough, he shines on Track 2. He slows things down with a somber interpretation of Come Rain or Come Shine, and Byrd’s insightful arrangement captures the tune’s melancholy. His outstanding piano solo is rivaled only by Clements’ introspective trumpet solo and the muted horns, whose presence is always felt but never menacing. With help from his +4, Byrd continues flexing his musical muscles on the next number, I’ve Got News For You, with a performance so steeped in the blues that it just drips the whole way through.

Jessica Chung, Platter Picks

When he sings or speaks with Lea Gilmore on “Baby It’s Cold Outside” and “Watch Them Dogs,” the two vocalists banter back-and-forth with a comfortable ease. Byrd’s silky smooth vocals, especially on “Baby Won’t You Please Come Home” and “You Don’t Know Me,” stand on their own merits.

John M. Peters, Musicwatch #11

Rather than perform the usual suspects of the Ray Charles oeuvre, Eric Byrd and his band have selected eleven songs not necessarily automatically attached to the Charles legend.  These include Let The Good Times Roll, Them That Got, Get On The Right Track, Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying and Baby Won’t You Please Come Home. The emphasis on the musical style here is on smooth and easy listening, with Byrd’s vocal style reminiscent to that of George Benson, or perhaps even the great Nat King Cole Trio with added oomph. The trio of Eric Byrd on piano, Bhagwan Khalsa on bass and Alphonso Young Jr on drums is backed by a four piece brass section and Lea Gilmore on vocals and Frank McCreary on guitar, so the sound is rich and extremely good humored. This is an album for that long car journey, or for chilling out to. In fact it is an album of such mellow good vibes it is easily one of my favorites of the year so far, and deserves lots of radio exposure.

Adam Greenberg, AMG

Byrd and his band have some excellent chops (and in particular, the addition of the “+4 Horns”), Byrd’s voice is casual, built for a nightclub. Excellent solos throughout the album from Paul Carr on tenor sax and Brad Clements on trumpet, and an extremely solid rhythm section made of Byrd himself, Al Young Jr., and Bhagwan Khalsa make for a nice listen.

Kyle O’ Brien, Jazzscene

Brother Ray refers to the late Ray Charles, so this disc is obviously blues and R&B based. Pianist/vocalist Byrd is at the helm and is an able bandleader, his honed piano charging through while letting his plus four horns punch up the soloing. “Let the Good Times Roll” drives with energy and musically sets the bar high. Prettier tunes like “Come Rain or Come Shine,” he can let his tone lead. The music on here, played superbly by the band, is a fitting tribute to Charles – more polished to be certain, but finely executed.

Edward Blanco, Ejazz News

A swinging tribute to the late singer Ray Charles, the music in “Brother Ray” can be summed up by the very first tune, “Let The Good Times Roll.” By and large that’s what pianist/vocalist Eric Byrd does here as he lets it all hang out in a rollicking fun time on this CD. Except for the ballad-like “Come Rain Or Come Shine,” the soft “Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Cryin’“ and the emotional “You Don’t Know Me,” where Byrd sings and performs solo on piano, the balance of the repertoire is all swing and blues. In short, “Brother Ray” will have you moving to a jazzy and bluesy groove providing a fun and entertaining session of music that one will enjoy from beginning to end.

C. Michael Bailey, All About Jazz

With Eric Byrd Trio’s “Brother Ray” we are treated to a very fine tribute recording that stand firmly on its own creative feet, pianist/vocalist Byrd is a superb Charles interpreter.  Byrd has a cognac-smooth delivery. Byrd proves a capable balladeer on “Don’t Let the  Sun Catch You Cryin’” and “You Don’t Know Me.” His piano style is two-fisted and effective. Byrd is also quite the blues player, betraying hints of the late Gene Harris on “I Want a Little Girl.” Brother Ray is an enjoyable tribute to the genius of the title.

Chuck Vecoli, Jazzreview

You can feel the reverence to the title character from the opening notes of “Let The Good Times Roll,” and it continues on throughout the set list. But to really get the gist of what Eric is trying to convey with this work, listen to the opening bars of “Come Rain or Come Shine.” It is a soulful homage to the man, the music, and the age. The one thing that I really enjoyed about this CD is that it is a tribute, not an imitation. Byrd doesn’t try to mimic Charles, he lets the love and respect he has for the man and his music motivate his own interpretation. He channels the energy and style of Ray, but not the man, so you hear Eric Byrd and the band at their finest as they work some legendary songs. My personal favorite is “I’ve Got News For You.” It has all the elements; Ray Charles, BB King, and even some Professor Longhair! And, the arrangement rivaled some of the best I’ve heard. In contemporary times, to hear that kind of total package you need to go hear BB himself, or in a pinch, Harry Connick, Jr. “Brother Ray” delivers on all fronts…music and vocals. All the elements are there, great titles, solid arrangements, all the right instruments, a voice or two, and some superb execution. “Brother Ray” keeps it all alive.  The Eric Byrd Trio has been Ambassadors of music before, and they are again. They represent the finest that Ray Charles represented. If you are a Ray Charles fan, this CD will make you an Eric Byrd Trio fan.

Ben Ohmart, Music Dish and Muses Muse

Now, by the amount of baby’s here, you might think it’s a blues album. That’s just half the fact, jack. It’s showcasing a slow grooving jazz combo, helped sometimes by that +4 of horns. Beautiful stuff. “I’ve Got News for You” is the best of the blues, with Eric stamping the keys in that limbo between raunchy and subtle jazz. But my personal favorite is the classic “Come Rain or Come Shine.” Some people believe that you can’t mar certain songs. There are no foolproof songs. And when Eric applies his quiet, old style jazz to this favorite, you’ll never hear better. Very, very solid jazz album. Even though I got almost sick of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” a few months ago at Christmas, Eric and guest vocalist Lea Gilmore have renewed my faith in this loverly-worded duet (and you have to see the movie it came from; perfect comedy performance in this song).  Highly recommended CD for the boogie jazz among you.

John Book, The Run Off Groove #191

It’s a chance for Byrd to hit the big time with this music, not only towards gaining a wider audience but musically, “big time.” Byrd has that kind of sweet soul voice that you can’t help but be charmed by, and along with his piano runs and phrasing this is a musician who is not only confident about the music he plays, but in himself. Hear him sing “Them That Got” and “Get On The Right Track Baby” and Mr. Charles would be honored to hear these songs done in this manner. The album also returns to the trio lineup, but features the vocals of Lea Gilmore, who helps take “Baby It’s Cold Outside” and “Watch Them Dogs” closer to home while raising a few curious eyebrows at the same time. Also impressive is Link’s flute work in “Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Cryin’”, worthy enough to stand out in its own right and definitely one of my favorite songs on the album. It’s good music meant to be revived during any time of the year, and whether it is in a trio setting or +4, these are a set of musicians that should be heard under any circumstances.  Eric Byrd is a musician who has the passion to soothe any painful soul, and hopefully with this album he’ll be able to do that on a wider scale.

Chris Spector, Midwest Record Recap

Soulful, jazz crew adds some pals to the mix for a real full band sound and tips the cap to Ray Charles with a smoking set that isn’t a tribute set for the sake of a band getting traction. Standing on it’s own as a smart set, this is a crisp date that Charles fans will welcome as a cool interpretation of some great stuff that isn’t over done.

Rotcod Zzaj, Improvijazzation Nation

Not another worn out “tribute” album – at all…. Byrd (piano & vocals) & krew (Bhagwan Khalsa’s bass works and Alphonso Young’s drums), along with a 4-man horn section (Brad Clements, Lyle Link, Paul Carr & Chris Watling) & 2 guests (Lee Gilmore’s vocals & guitar from Frank McCreary) take Ray Charles’ tunes and whupp ‘em right into some spirit-filled musical play that will make yer’ soul soar high! I’ve no doubt that Mr. Charles is smilin’ and noddin’ as he scopes this out – both in the aural sense and the visual, ‘coz without video, you can still feel these folks dancin’ as they play! I haven’t heard this much soul infusion SINCE watching Ray’s movie (you know, th’ one where Jamie Foxx (literally) played Ray)… “Let The Good Times Roll” opens with all th’ rollickin’ and rollin’ you’d expect from Ray’s music, & th’ party rawks on all the way on through the CD… this is a CAR CD (yes, indeedy, Mr. Byrd, you’re in MY rotation), and won’t go back in th’ rack for years! “Get On The Right Track” (cut 5) is THE smoker, my favorite for sure…. hard to pick one, though, ‘coz they all will get you groovin’, for sure! I rate this as MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, whether your penchant is for blues, jazz, or good ol’ R&B… in fact, this gets the “PICK” of this issue for “coolest band around”

Keith Ward, Virtualization Review

The album focuses on Charles’ jazz stuff, and it’s fantastic. Eric’s a terrific musician, and deserves much wider recognition than he currently has. I think his latest album could catapult him there. It’s got a lot more horns than his previous albums, and is lushly produced. I especially love his drummer, Al Young. Al is incredible, almost intimidatingly good; if I could ever get to be half the drummer he is, I would consider it a monumental achievement. Eric, Al and Bhagwan Khalsa, who plays a superb acoustic bass, have been playing together for a long time, and it shows.

Bruce Von Stiers, BVS Reviews

Brother Ray is indeed a nice tribute to the music of Ray Charles. Eric Byrd has gathered not only great musicians for this album, but selected wonderful songs that really do catch the spirit of the man known to the world as Brother Ray. The classic song Let The Good Times Roll gets a nice turn as the first track on the album. Strong vocals and great horn music. Piano laden blues gets played out in I’ve Got News For You. The piano and horns are killer on this one. We get to hear the beautiful vocals of Lea Gilmore as she does a duet with Eric on Baby It’s Cold Outside. There is a special treat on Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Cryin’. Alto sax player Lyle Link brings terrific flute music to the song. I Want A Little Girl is next. Bluesy but subtle, this is a nice piano and bass tune with great vocals. Lea gives another wonderful vocal performance on the song Watch Them Dogs.  Eric closes the album with a gentle love song called You Don’t Know Me.

D. Oscar Groomes, O’s Place

Eric sings the blues and tickles the ivory too! “I’ve Got News For You” is the epitome of what he’s saying. The eleven songs have a swinging blues feel from the 1960s including a four-piece horn section accentuating all of the fine points. Bryd teams up with Lea Gilmore singing two cool numbers notably “Baby It’s Cold Outside”. It’s a good blend that is enjoyable.

Greg, The Chicken Fish Speaks

This is a classic jazz trio straight out of the hip early 60’s, being backed up by a four piece horn section. Eric and band owe a great debt to Ray Charles and to a lesser extent the other masters of jazz. One of my favorite tracks on this disc is the tune “I’ve Got News For You” about a lying wayward girlfriend. The lyrics are excellent and the mutterings from the band members really makes it come alive. If you have a deep love of the songs from the beat generation and other classics then get this disc and search out the Eric Byrd Trio who I’m sure gives a great live performance.

I also write reviews and features for “!earshot” and saw the chart from there on your website! Very cool. I look forward to exploring your other music as well. Great work!!

Mark Robinson KFM Radio New Zealand

At first glance you might think that this is yet another tribute CD to Ray Charles. But this release is much more than that and should not be dismissed off-handedly. Vocalist and pianist Eric Byrd has taken music from Ray’s vast catalogue that inspired Byrd to take up the piano. Byrd’s trio is augmented by 4 horns, additional vocalist Lea Gilmore and guitarist Frank McCreary and boy can these cats swing. From the first bars of “Let the Good Times Roll” you know that you are in for a joyous ride. Of course the musicians are exceptional but more than that you can feel their enthusiasm for the music and it is infectious. This CD will bring pleasure on many levels, if Byrd’s intension was to make the listener sit-up, listen and smile then he has achieved his goals. Oh and did I mention dancing? 5 stars from me.

Matt Schroeder, Jazz Director, KZUU 90.7 FM

I am really impressed! This is a really good album!

Suzanne Weiss, KRZA 88.7 FM Alamosa, CO Brother Ray-I played three cuts on my last show (especially like “I Got News For You”) , and plan to play more my next show. I think it’s the most exciting thing we’ve gotten in lately. Best wishes on all your projects!!
