Walter Beasley - Ready For Love
- Walter Beasley’s latest album, Ready For Love, is the consummate title for a record filled with benevolent ballads of jazz that will perk up one’s heart and put them in the mood for love. “Free” opens with vocals from Tiffany Davis. The song then blends in Beasley’s indisputable alto saxophone work along with drum work from Lil’ John Roberts and Anthony Nelson Steele. “La Nina” has Beasley echoing the genius of Kenny G on the alto saxophone, along with more intricate drum work from Roberts and Steele, buffeted by smooth percussion work from Ricardo Monzon. “Be Thankful For What You’ve Got” has masterful keyboard work from Beasley, Steele, Dow Brain, Phil Davis, James Lloyd and Orville Wright. The title track has whimsy sounds accompanied by more keyboard work and the dulcet strains of Beasley on the sax. To sum up, Ready For Love, by Walter Beasley, is the perfect album to turn on when you want to get just the right affectionate response.
