Please Mr. Groove * Euge Groove

Details

Description

The man with the slow but funky grooves is back with his 13th recording, called Comfort Zone. Euge Groove explains the album concept like this. “The title Comfort Zone came about because I was anything but comfortable writing this album and I needed to get out of my comfort zone…writing songs in different keys then I’m used to, made me come up with different melodies and chord structures.

Candy Dulfer, Richard Elliot & Dino Soldo tag along on this ten track effort. Nine of the tracks are originals, and he re-imagines the One Way classic Mr. Groove (Please Mr. Groove).

The set concludes with a funky re-imagination of the song Mr. Groove by One Way. Please Mr. Groove is not just a remake, it is a current version of a classic track. Richard Elliot is on vocoder and Candy Dulfer is on alto sax. If you think about it, it totally makes sense that Euge Groove would record this song.

What can you say, Comfort Zone is pure Euge Groove. Even though he stated that he purposely wanted to get out of his comfort zone with this project, it still has the Euge Groove sound, and that is what makes him one of the masters of the Smooth Jazz genre.
