Details: Product Description Smooth Jazz superstar Boney James has dominated the genre like no one else. Not only is Body Language the sax player's sexiest and smoothest yet but I'll Always Love You (featuring hit-making R&B vocal group Shai) just may be the next great wedding song. Boney's previous album, Sweet Thing, is near-gold and was named R&R's 1998 NAC Album of the Year. Amazon.ca As learned from the broad-based popularity of his previous albums, people turn to saxophonist Boney James to do one thing: create sultry audio backdrops well suited for mingling, small talk, and romantic notions. James, rotating between tenor, soprano, and alto saxophones, faithfully delivers more of those goods on this, his sixth album. The mood sustained throughout all nine tracks (42-plus minutes runtime) is urbane, low-key, and cue-ball smooth. Chelle Davis provides breathy background vocals on the slow-grooving opening track, "Are You Ready?" and R&B crooners Shai take a more foreground role on the sweetly disarming "I'll Always Love You." Perhaps the album's most attractive cut is the slow urban crawl of "Boneyizm," with subdued interplay between James's tenor sax and Rick Braun's flügelhorn. Nothing shrill, outrageous, new, or significant awaits here, simply an engaging and pleasant listen. --Terry Wood
