Saxophonist Kim Waters Returning With “Love Stories” On Shanachie 1/26/10

Smooth jazz saxophonist Kim Waters has completed a new CD titled Love Stories that he’ll be offering on the Shanachie label on January 26. The 10-song CD, Kim’s 17th, is his first solo release since I Want You: Love in the Spirit of Marvin, which was released in October 2008. Since then, he also produced and performed on the CDs Hot Buttered Jazz: Celebrating the Genius of Isaac Hayes, and the Streetwize collection Put You to Bed. He also released a CD with the group The Sax Pack, which also features Jeff Kashiwa and Steve Cole.

Love Stories includes the songs “Song of Passion,” “Love Story,” ”For Lovers Only,” “Reaching Out” and “Beyond the Horizon,” among others. Waters also cover Rose Royce’s “Love Don’t Here Here Anymore” and, in a nod to the late Michael Jackson, Waters covers his “This Is It” from his 2009 CD of the same name. In addition, guest vocalist Kenny Lattimore performs on the song “One More…”

Waters has had numerous No. 1 smooth jazz singles, including “The Ride,” “In the Groove,” “Waterfall” and “Fallin’ For You,” the latter with The Sax Pack.
