Gregory Porter - Real Good Hands

from Motema's Fall Sampler For Jazziz by Motéma Music

from Motema's Fall Sampler For Jazziz, released August 7, 2012
Gregory Porter’s 2010 Motema Music debut, Water, garnered a ‘Best Jazz Vocal’ Grammy® nomination (a rare feat for a debut recording), rocketed to #1 on both iTunes and Amazon in the UK and soared onto an international array of year-end ‘Best Of’ lists for 2010 in several genres, and within a scant 15 months established him as a formidable international touring artist.

Based on the groundwork laid by the volume of positive critical and public response to Water, Be Good has been met with out of the box success. The track “Real Good Hands” was selected by iTunes as its Single of The Week, propelling the track to the #1 position on the iTunes jazz chart for two weeks, and sending it soaring into the Top 100 overall album chart the first week of release. Since Be Good dropped, the CD has drawn critical raves from the likes of Soul Tracks, who declared, “Porter fuses jazz and soul better than anybody working these days… We are only one month into 2012 and we may have already heard the album of the year. Very Highly Recommended.”
