It is natural that Reggie still loves to sing ballads because of the early influence from Nat Cole, but there is another style his fans want to hear just as well. It is a difficult style to sing. One we don't hear so much, perhaps just for that reason: vocalese.
For a real treat, listen to the track playing on this page. It's classic Reggie vocalese, Reggie singing the lyrics Eddie Jefferson wrote to follow the main melody in Miles Davis' "So What." Lyrics so apt about Miles and his critics, and riveting vocal gymnastics with Reggie's articulate scat to boot. Reggie’s Favorite |
