Kenny Lattimore Tickets

Went to see Kenny Lattimore at BB King Blues Club on Sunday and it was an awesome!!! First off Mr. Lattimore engaged the crowd encouraging us to sing along and interact with him which made for a very personal and intimate setting. He cared that we cared enough to come out and see him and he expressed this with words and also with his performance. Second, he addressed in a very classy and honest way (even though he did not have to) the rumors concerning his current personal life relating to Chante Moore and their 9 year old son.No bashing just honesty. Last but not least he promoted his upcoming CD "Back to Cool" in a way that was not pushy or annoying. Sooooo cool....I will definitely buy it. In summary, Kenny Lattimore has much "more" to offer and I wish him best of luck on his new record label and new CD!

I've seen Kenny Lattimore perform several times over the years, but he really surprised me with this new spellbinding show! Looks like a new band and a few new songs, but what hasn't changed is that his voice is still as capable and smooth as ever. The show isn't a show without him acting out the smoldering blues of Donny Hathaway's "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know" as if he penned it himself. The song was the centerpiece of his critically-acclaimed 1998 album From The Soul of Man, and still retains its passion today. Of course everyone comes to hear the wedding standard "For You" that inevitably appears toward the end. As a showman, Kenny is gifted at weaving together little stories between songs that make you feel like you're following a plot. It makes even the less familiar songs intriguing. You can't help but be charmed when he dons a tongue-in-cheek British accent to introduce the pair of Beatles' tunes in his catalog, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and "And I Love Her." Another treat is how he often masterfully interprets quiet storm classics like "Betcha By Golly Wow" or Teena Marie's "Irons In The Fire." Sometimes with his band, sometimes vulnerably a capella, but always flawless. There's no substitute for a great voice. Often the songs are arranged thematically. At some point, Kenny gives tips on how to apologize when your girl's mad at you, then slips seamlessly into "Forgiveness" and gave a bonus verse of The Isley Brothers' "At Your Best (You Are Love)." And if she accepts your apology, then the sexy "You Are My Starship" will move you expediently to the bedroom. By the time he closed out the show with a samba-remixed "Weekend," you had already gotten your money's worth several times over. So the bonus snippets of Sade's "No Ordinary Love" and Stevie Wonder's "Another Star" that he worked into the show closer really did leave everyone wanting more. I REALLY WISH I had a DVD of it. So, Mr. Lattimore if you see this, can we please make that happen?
