Smooth Soul at the Rrazz Room With the Dramatics
- Full Price:
- $50.00
- Our Price:
- $25.00
Enjoy some classic smooth soul and quiet storm R&B in the sophisticated and intimate setting of the Rrazz Room, one of San Francisco's premiere night clubs. In their early '70s heyday, the Dramatics were an anomaly: a Detroit singing group signed not to their famed hometown label, Motown, but to the legendary Southern soul label Stax/Volt. Their sound, as heard on hit singles like "Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get" and "In the Rain," straddles both worlds, combining the Temptations-like silky-smooth harmonies of Motown with the earthiness of Memphis-style soul. Still performing after more than 40 years, the group features veteran member L.J. Reynolds along with Willie Ford, Donald Albert and Winzell Kelly. Learn More

Description
Reviewed as an “unusually strong-voiced tenor” who “shows great sensitivity,” Jimmy possesses vocal flexibility and a range of experience spanning from Latin American music to opera halls and venues around the world.
It is his love and appreciation for the music of early to mid 20th century Latin America and the Caribbean combined with his understanding of the elegance of classic American jazz that inspires Jimmy to fuse the best of both worlds. It is to that exquisite nexus of sensuousness and musicality where he and his musicians take us with a smile.
