Gary Palmer / Press

“Fresh off his latest soulful urban jazz album LOVE ME AGAIN, saxman Gary Palmer celebrates the season with a bright blast of R&B/funk driven jazz on a vibrant, delightfully funky rendition of Donny Hathaway’s timeless classic “This Christmas.” Palmer’s “rest of the year” music often has a spirited tropical vibe to it, and this track’s lively piano solo has a few colorful dashes that truly make the season bright (and a bit warmer!). Come celebrate “This Christmas” with Gary Palmer & THE GP Project. ~JONATHAN WIDRAN”

“Love Me Again, the new project by Florida based saxophonist Gary Palmer, presents listeners with a nice blend of instrumental and vocal R&B, with a dash of jazzy creativity thrown into the mix. The 10 track album showcases Palmer as a creative improviser on the sax who plays with energy. He is clearly the star of the show, but he avoids the pitfall of overplaying and dominating the proceedings. There are two reasons for this: First, the tunes on this 10 track project are short in duration, with eight of the 10 being less than four minutes, with about half of them featuring vocals. The best of the tracks that feature singing include “Yes I,” a love ballad that incorporates melodic and harmonic allusions to Earth, Wind & Fire’s “That’s the Way of The World,” and features Palmer’s high range tenor vocals.

“GARY PALMER Love Me Again Lauderdale Beach Recordings Don’t let Gary Palmer’s elegant suit and tie on the cover of his album LOVE ME AGAIN tell the whole story... he’s all about steppin’ out and having some sweet, soulful Urban Jazz fun. Alternating between soprano and alto, the versatile NYC born and raised, South Florida-based musician and songwriter stirs up the sultry romance on the breezy, easy groovin'' “Love Me Again” and “Stay With Me,” a balmy vibe is the perfect backdrop to his rich tenor-driven emotion. Another romantic highlight is the sultry, Earth, Wind & Fire-influenced “Yes I.” In the mood? Listen to LOVE ME AGAIN again and again! ~JONATHAN WIDRAN”

“Stay With Me- Review Wow, what an outstanding cut. The music was outstanding and the sax was totally awesome. There is nothing like listening to a great piece of jazz being played and this was it. The flow and tempo worked well together as he went back and forth between his sounds and made it work. The music kept you listening and interested to see what he was going to play next. There was no singing because this was strictly an instrumental piece but at the end of the day it sounded wonderful and was an awesome cut.”

“My Gift To You “Beautiful music arrangement. The music sounds great, the saxophone with the smooth melodic vibe. Just sets the tone for a calm warm loving tone that is really enjoyable. The Christian lyrics brings the jazz flavor to life. A delightful song that has a melodious sound that brings peace to your soul.””
