Jonathan Poretz - A Lot Of Livin’ To Do
- A jazzy combination of slow jams and playful tunes encompasses Jonathan Poretz’s A Lot Of Livin' To Do. The title track opens the album and it is a salacious version of the breezy ditty. It has percussion work from Vince Lateano, and Poretz’s sensual voice muses lyrics like, “There are girls ripe for some kissin’. And I mean to kiss me a few. Oh those girls don’t know what their missin’. I’ve got a lot of livin’ to do.” “My Time of Day/I’ve Never Been in Love Before” has soulful tenor saxophone play from Noel Jewkes. “Then I’ll Be Tired Of You” has drum play from Lateano, more smooth saxophone work from Jewkes and piano play from Lee Bloom. Poretz speaks of his romantic feelings and just how deep they run, with lyrics like, “I’ll be tired of you when stars are tired of gleaming. When I’m tired of dreaming then I’ll be tired of you.” “Come Rain or Come Shine” is a playful tune with nimble piano play from Bloom and lyrics like, “I’m gonna love you like nobody’s loved you, come rain or come shine.” Jonathan Poretz’s A Lot Of Livin’ To Do is the perfect blend of upbeat and tenebrous tunes for the jazz enthusiast.
