Nicola Conte - Do You Feel Like I Feel (Feat. Gregory Porter) x Love From The Sun (Feat. Nailah Porter & José James)

Although the cover didn't give me the best first impression, Nicola Conte's new album is easily his most collaborative, righteous and deepest record to date. The exceptionally talented Gregory Porter was drafted in for the first of my two favourite tracks, which sees the NFL player turned Jazz singer feature on a much more uptempo piece of music than we came to expect from his stunning debut album, Water. The second track is a super unique rework of Roy Ayers' classic, Love From The Sun, which finds Nailah Porter & José James teaming up with the multi-talented Italian producer. This is simply a must buy for any fan of Jazz music.

Water

Here is the title track from Gregory Porter’s quite simply stunning debut album, Water, which will be available to buy on May 11th. Seems as though it’s been floating around the web for a bit, but everyone is talking about him at the moment and it’s currently Jazz Fm’s album of the week. I’ve fallen in love with his voice and this album has rejuvenated my love for male vocal Jazz. Probably the best album I’ve heard this year.
