His own songs have been covered by hundreds of artists and now Bob Dylan is turning the tables for a second time in as many years. On Fallen Angels, released a year after the similarly themed Shadows in the Night, Dylan once again offers his interpretations of American standards popularised by Frank Sinatra. Opting to use his own band, and not an orchestra, Dylan creates a relaxed, mellow mood and sounds in fine spirits as he croons his way through 12 familiar songs, including Young at Heart and That Old Black Magic. Dylan has long dabbled in cover songs, both on his records and in concert – this is not even the first time he has released entire albums of cover versions back-to-back.

Like many jazz organists, Mike LeDonne started out on piano, playing with the Art Farmer-Clifford Jordan Quartet, Dizzy Gillespie, Stanley Turrentine and Sonny Rollins.

Now, with 8 Savant CDs as a leader under his belt, LeDonne has certainly earned himself a place in the elite club of truly great organist-bandleaders. Here he appears with his acclaimed Groover Quartet, this time with alto saxophonist Vincent Herring along for a swinging ride through an unhackneyed set of nine numbers all of which receive the unmistakable LeDonne treatment.

And though James' voice is no less agile and his ear no less adventurous, this is also his most relatable, daresay sexiest work yet, detailing love's ups and downs without holding back an ounce of emotion.
