August 28, 2003: Artist: Tony Adamo Title: Dance Of Love Genre: Jazz/Vocals, Pop, Smooth, R & B Label: Rhombus Records Website: www.jazznow.com/Adamo/adindex.html Tony Adamo is the definition of the consummate smooth vocalist on his latest release <I>Dance of Love</I>. He sounds like a combination of Lou Rawls and David Bowie. Out of the ordinary as that may sound for a jazz vocalist it works very well. The sound created on this recording happened for Adamo because he utilizes one of the most accomplished saxophone players in the business, Ernie Watts, as well as many other talented individuals. I found it easy enough to step into Adamo’s worlds through his music. “Midnight Café” is one of the more expressive tracks on the album and the ambiance created is believable because of the singers’ well-timed vocal inflections and the stellar musicianship available for him to build his voice around. The common denominator here is love and how we all dance to it in a different way. It is equivalent to how we all have our own unique personalities and interpretations of daily life and how relationships with others effect us. Tony does a nice job making his point known through some very nice jazz music. This is crossover jazz that will appeal to both the contemporary and pop audiences alike. There is not any new ground covered here, it is straightforward with no frills, which is comforting for many people when they listen to music. I like that aspect myself at times. I am sure once you hear this groove it will find its way back to your stereo on more than one occasion. Shall we dance? ©"Keith "MuzikMan" Hannaleck August 26, 2003 1. Ecstasy - 4:12 2.

May 19, 2003: All site content copyright © 2001- 2003 Jeff Charney unless otherwise indicated. Reproduction is prohibited with prior permission. Tony Adamo Dance Of Love Rhombus Review by Jeff Charney Tony is a vocalist out the Oakland, California area who has been singing since he was a teenager. You might have seen him as he performed quite extensively on the Nevada circuit. On Dance Of Love he combines he silky, romantic pipes with some hip Jazz styles to give us meaty piece of work. The best song on the disc is “Midnight Café” which features Ernie Watts on sax (he got him to play on this track for free). It’s smooth, it grooves and it is just right to break this crooner out to the public. “Mystery” is one of those tracks that’ll just grow on you the more you listen to it. Very Bobby Caldwell influenced. “Ecstasy” is very romantic in a very smooth sort of way. I can’t say that the rest of the CD is what one might call a Jazz album. Adamo does use some Jazz elements in the music arrangements, but the CD is mostly a solid performance of an adult singer in today’s world. A good comparison would be a modern Lou Rawls. “When Love Comes Over You’ is a classic example of what I’m saying. I did enjoy the disc and hopefully radio will give it a look.
