Customer Reviews:
Mighty Jackie Mitto.......2006-09-01
The man is truly a legend, as is made clear on this fabulous disc. Everyone a classic.
Exquisite album!.......2005-04-15
Jackie Mitoo's CD 'King of Keyboard at Studio One' has got some plenty interesting songs on it. It blends a different variety of instruments throughout, but the majority of it sounds like a combination of classic soul and instrumental jazz. There is some sensational music to be found on 'King of Keyboard', particularly "Wall Street" and "Oboe." Just about all of the other songs on this album are a little short, but these two songs alone more than make up for that by providing just the right length while not being too dull at the same time. Although I wanted this album exclusively for "Wall Street", there are many other noteworthy titles here including "Reggae Rock", "Summer Breeze", "Drum Song", "Darker Shade of Black", and especially "Stereo Freeze." Those tracks are plenty of fun to listen to, also. The background instruments are executed in a way that delivers a surrealistic feel to the songs. Fortunately, 'King of Kingboard' does not suffer from the error of being too short or too long, but just right. It manages to provide just the right mixture between lengthy songs and short songs, which is ideal. The album features 15 songs that amount to a grand total of 58 minutes and 2 seconds. Therefore, I highly recommend Jackie Mittoo's 'King of Keyboard' to anyone with a penchant for jazz, classic soul, or a combination of various instruments.
