DETROIT
(Tell Us
Det) -
The
weather
may have
been
cold out
but in
the
Millennium
Center,
it was
“90
Degrees
At
Midnight.”
That is
the
title of
the new
CD
project
that
Randy
Scott
had a
released
party
for at
the
Millennium
Center
on last
night.
The host
for the
party,
MC Mr.
Double J
warmed
up the
audience
and
prepared
them for
a night
full of
music
starting
with
Demetrius
“Krayon”
Nabors,
who
happens
to be
Randy
Scott’s
Musical
Director
played
four
songs,
from his
upcoming
release
“The
Journey
Within”.
With the
help of
friends
like Rob
Skinner
on bass,
James
Coleman
on sax,
and Dana
Davis on
drums,
songs
like
“Ridding
the
Groove,
What a
Day, and
Into the
Night”
gave the
audience
a tastes
of what
is to
come
from Mr.
Nabors.
Now
before
Mr.
Scott
came
onstage
a video
was
played
about
the
labor of
love
titled
“90
Degrees
At
Midnight.”
It gave
the
audience
a brief
view
into the
making
of the
new CD,
via
recording
sessions
and
video
diaries
made by
Mr.
Scott.
As the
MC
Double J
announced
Mr.
Scott’s
long
list of
accomplishments,
from
playing
with and
being
mentored
by the
late
Grover
Washington
Jr. to
have
played
for
former
presidents
you saw
the
audience
anticipation
for what
was
coming
next.
Mr.
Randy
Scott
came out
playing
Woodward
Avenue
one of
the cuts
from “90
Degrees
At
Midnight.”
He then
played
"Sunsets"
and a
host of
other
songs
from his
CD’s
past and
present.
A nice
surprise
during
the
show,
was Mr.
Scott’s
good
friend
Guitarist
Tim
Bowman
stopped
by to
perform
a duet
on a
song
they
co-wrote
titled
“Everything
is
Everything.”
The band
or “The
Breath
of Life”
as Randy
Scott
referred
to
them,Demetrius
“Krayon”
Nabors
on keys,
Ed Tate
on bass,
Bret
Farkas
on
guitar,
Percussionist
Lauren
Johnson,
Drums,
Kenny
Brooks,
the
horns of
life
consisted
of
Dexter
Graham
on tenor
sax,
Peter
Nelson
on
Trombone,
and
Chris
Johnson
on
trumpet
with a
stage
full of
true
musicians,
it was
night
full of
great
music.
The
wonderful
thing
about
this
release
party is
every
song Mr.
Scott
played
from the
new CD
came
with a
story so
it was a
calm
relaxing
night of
smooth
Jazz for
15
dollars
that’s
right 15
dollars.
Randy
Scott is
truly a
humble
man he
signed
every CD
for this
fans and
tried to
have a
conversation
with
everyone
he
could.
It was
truly a
warm
night
with
family,
music
and
friends
for a
modest
price.
