The Omnichord Real Book (CD)
Meshell Ndegeocello
Amoeba Review
Omnichord Real Book is a career high for the immensely talented Meshell Ndegeocello. On her first release for Blue Note, Ndegeocello combines jazz, funk, rock, dub, soul, spoken word, and electronic to create an overwhelmingly beautiful stunner of an album. This is the kind of album that makes you stop what you're doing and just luxuriate in the sound, and with eighteen excellent tracks, it's truly an immersive experience. Omnichord Real Book feels like a rebirth: Even when rooted in melancholy, these soaring songs touch the sky, seemingly heaven-sent.
