Jazz category, starring a Vibes  and Marimba player, the opening song, the ever popular <i>Love the One You\u2019re With<\/i>. Also included: Al Green\u2019s <i>Let\u2019s Stay Together<\/i>, and <i>Ain\u2019t\u00a0  No Sunshine<\/i>. No way! Way. Vibist Arthur Lipner presents us with a  very nice release which features some stellar 80\u2019s style soft fusion.<\/p>\n<p> The 10 songs are non-acoustic, featuring some fusion-esque  vamps and smooth-like finger pop jazz with electric guitars, basses, keyboards  and drums. REAL DRUMS !!\u00a0 These fellas  bring fresh, proactive energy to the music, with the type of force usually  found in live performances. <\/p>\n<p><i>Let\u2019s Stay Together<\/i> is done at nearly break-neck speed, <i>Love  The One You\u2019re With<\/i> is performed up-tempo funky, and both are well  arranged. <i>Mood Vibe<\/i> should be  receiving national air play on smooth jazz stations, but the flaw may be that  the arrangement is not simple enough. <i>Flor  De Lis<\/i> and <i>Blue Tango<\/i> are  Island-flavored delights. This is one for the collection that does not land in  the ho-hum, and will surprise many whom aren\u2019t familiar with Lipner. 4 stars.<\/p>\n<p>                <?php require($DOCUMENT_ROOT . \"_footer.htm\");   ??><\/font><\/body><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arthur Lipner Modern Vibe(Jazzheads &#8211; 2004) by John Thompson Stay<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5054","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5054","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5054"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5054\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5054"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5054"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5054"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
