Victor Janusz: A Song To Love-Music and Lyrics of Victor Janusz 2004-2020

Singer, pianist and composer Victor Janusz displays the wares of the past 16 years on this collection of material having him singing in a variety of settings with a rotating team of musicians.  His own voice has a street-wise feel with a dash of Randy Newman sardonic philosophy, sleek with Mark Taylor’s soprano sax on “A Song To Love”, mellow with trumpeter Jason Parker on “Dreaming Of” and hip with vibesman Jacques Willis during “Christmas On Mars”. A world-wised duet with Duffy Bishop results in “Fruitcake Blues” and a taste of the French Quarter complete with accordion has him with Arwen Dewey on “Sain-Malo”. The feels range from smoothish jazz to raconteurish observations, bringing back the lost art of the singer-songwriter, like a musical Mort Sahl or next generation Ben Sidran. Get him on a tour with a band!
