Day 11: January 11: Since First I Saw Your Face

"And your sweet beauty past compare, made my poor eyes the bolder."

Jazz guitarist Lee Ritenour turns 64 today.  I'm not really familiar with his work except that James sings a song on one of his albums.  It's a bit of an unwelcome departure from the kind of stuff James usually does.  It has the feel of something you'd hear sung at a Renaissance festival, and I don't really mean that as a compliment.  This makes sense as the lyrics were apparently written in 1617.  James voice is clean but the song is a bit boring.  Still, if you're a fan, you should give it a listen.

Since I First Saw Your Face

So, it turns out this guy isn't really my style.  He seems to be acclaimed, and I'm sure for the kind of music he plays, it's great and all, but it's just not for me.  The best I could find is another collaboration, this time with Keb Mo and Taj Mahal, two guys I have loads of respect for.  

Am I Wrong?
