The last singer for the Count Basie band, Rowland uses the low-key, non-blues-belter side of Joe Williams as his starting point. Then he mixes in a touch of Johnny Hartman's romantic sound for the most subtle and natural results. Rowland is good; he doesn't attempt to dazzle you with empty vocal pyrotechnics, he communicates. His three Concord Jazz recordings are choice, with <i>Now Dig This!</i>, his 1997 tribute to Miles Davis, out-shining Shirley Horn's worthy <i>I Remember Miles</i>. Like Susannah McCorkle, Dennis Rowland evokes the approach of the past's great singers without slavishly copying them. - Nick DedinaVocal Jazzen720Fri, 11 Dec 2009 02:00:13 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.21255&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fdennis-rowland%2Fplaylists.rss Jazz vocalist Dennis Rowland is an overlooked treasure.
