As lush and charming as
Najee
's flute playing is on
"Sidewayz,"
the opening track of his
Heads Up
debut, it's curious that he would lead off his album with three tracks (including likeable romantic vocals by
Will Downing
and newcomer
Lomon
) that put his long beloved soprano anything less than fully out front. Yet even in his heyday back in the formative years of
smooth jazz
,
Najee
was more about great overall tracks than worrying about such perceptions -- his fans can assume then, that like always, his new point of view is varied, designed to keep them on their toes.
Najee
spent the first years of the new millennium playing with
Prince
, and some residual
funk
rubs off on the catchy
Rex Rideout
collaborations
"Back in the Day"
and retro-flavored
"Charm,"
whose sonic effects and wah guitar by
Dwight Sills
truly take you back.
Chris "Big Dog" Davis
produced the album's big
ballads
, the silky title track and the moody, ambient
"How Lovely You Are."
Because
Najee
is shown throughout the packaging playing the soprano, his more aggressive alto energy on the
James Lloyd
-produced
"2nd 2 None"
comes along as a spirited surprise that makes you want even more. Even with all the new sax players that have arisen on the scene since his albums were routinely selling gold, it's a good bet that this very likeable set will once again bring
Najee
to the forefront of the genre. ~ Jonathan Widran, All Music Guide
